What we’re about
May all be happy!
Everyone wants to be happy. Philosophy's sole aim and motivation is to make happiness available to everyone.
Philosophy for all. - Anybody can access the benefits of philosophy. Everybody can have that access through the explorations that are Philosophy in the Park and Orchard.
Socrates implied that an examined life is a life worth living so we explore all aspects of life from many different angles. Many of them arising from questions from members' everyday lives, problems and sources of happiness.
Meeting together for discussions on various philosophical topics at the Willow tearoom in Central Park Peterborough, The Orchard Grantchester and other places.
First Saturday of each month at 10am in the park (except January when it varies). And the Orchard usually on the second Saturday.
All are welcome

See all- Is it time to lower the flag for equality and raise the flag for equity?Bowls pavilion central Park, Peterborough
We all have embedded in our beings a sense of fairness.
That can be limited to an idea of what my fair share is or to a particular section of humanity.
But what would true equity look like?
This will challenge us to look deeply at our motivations and values.
Strap in!

The demands on the planet to provide the raw materials to satisfy our apparently insatiable desire for new or updated products are relatively well-known.
But what happens to all that stuff when we are finished with it?
Where does it end up?
And how does it affect those places and the people living there? This talk will consider.
*If weather is forecast to be wet or cold, talk will take place at Grantchester Village Hall, CB3 9NG; please check with johnedeval@hotmail.com on Friday July 18th
