I want London to be a place where all women and girls feel safe and valued. That’s why I couldn’t be prouder to support the #16DaysofActivism on #WhiteRibbonDay. Join me and thousands of others in saying no to violence against women and girls.

As with all my chess clubs, this one in Norbury on Monday afternoons has places available for new girls and boys to join up. If you don't mind spending some of your budget, then bring your child along to learn a few new moves.

I run several junior chess clubs in London and I wish I could clone myself and have more. I'm devoted to teaching beginners from 6 yrs plus, so if you'd like your girl or boy to learn chess in a fun & friendly way, then the choice of club is yours.

Specialising in teaching beginners from 6 years old, this chess club in Herne Hill will keep your child thinking and exploring new ways to solve the chess problems I set. The cost is only £10 and you can just pop on over.

Shout out @hackneygazette for getting behind the movement. If you haven’t already check out the link in their bio featuring @JossyCare and Kofi also features a bit about @cephaswilliams and where the movement came from, touching on Drummer Boy Studios and other things #56BlackMen
