Events 2008

Heart Circles take place in Manchester on the 3rd Sunday of every month. Any ECC member is welcome to attend, including those who have recently been on the 'Taster Day' in Manchester. There is no charge, and you do not need to book.

The venue is the Joseph Perrier Lounge, downstairs at Taurus Bar which is at the Piccadilly Station end of Canal Street. You can find directions on their website: www.taurus-bar.co.uk Please be aware that although the bar & restaurant at Taurus does have disabled access facilities, the Joseph Perrier Lounge is down a flight of stairs and unfortunately does not.

The Heart Circle starts promptly at 3:30pm and you are welcome to arrive anytime from 3pm onwards for some social time beforehand. We usually finish around 5pm, and then some people will usually go for a drink or a meal in Taurus, or elsewhere on Canal Street, but there is absolutely no pressure or obligation to do this.

If you have not been to a Heart Circle before, it may be a good idea to read this page.
