I had this email the other day:
Hello,
We hope you can let your allotment holder networks know about this relevant
event happening in Digbeth within easy access of New Street Station.
What?
BRAVEvent is a one-off all-day Free community event; an opportunity for
anyone to enjoy a day (or an hour!) learning whatever new and exciting
skills you want to from the diverse drop-in sessions we have planned - the
seed swap has just been confirmed with donations from Suttons Seeds, and
there will be workshops on making innovative tetrapak plant pots with
optional . There will also be local talent to sample. The whole event is
FREE and a tasty lunch and dinner will be provided by suggested donation.
The whole event is run not-for-profit.
~Be there, be green, be gardening~
Where?

else!) will be running alongside workshops from lunch, and into the evening.

Please do feedback if you are able to distribute this through your
green-fingered networks.
Anyone else feel like going? If so, maybe we could meet up at some point.

It sounds like it might be interesting Robert. I'm rota'd to work so I don't think I can make it but I'd like to meet up so I'll think about taking the day off.
