If you’ve been a little curious about what people are on about when they put ‘Humanist’ in the spot for religion on their Facebook profile, then pop along to Birdwood House in Totnes on Thursday June 26 at 7.30pm.
Local celebrants, Jonathan Taylor, Stephen Peckham and Ann Mitchell will talk about their role in naming ceremonies, weddings and funerals (the picture is John Opie’s protrait of Mary Wollstonecraft - humanist and mother for Frankstein’s mother, so to speak).Further more information, telephone local Humanist contact Hazel Fuller on 01803 864156 or visit the Devon Humanists website.

Equality South West has got in touch with information about a publication which highlights human rights issues for those with learning difficulties.
The guide uses examples from the everyday situations, ‘from work, supported housing, day services and dealing with the local council to illustrate how human rights apply to people’s everyday lives’.
In the blurb Justice Minister Michael Wills said: ‘Human rights are for everyone, especially the most vulnerable in our society. This easily accessible booklet sets out the purpose of the Human Rights Act and the protections it affords.’
Download the guide.
