Change of venue for Easter Raw Food Potluck
Join us for this month’s Raw Food Potluck on Easter Sunday. The perfect antidote to too many Easter eggs!
STOP PRESS!!!! As we’ve been enjoying such glorious weather lately, and we’re hoping it will continue past Sunday, we’d like to have this as a Picnic Potluck.
So… if it’s SUNNY we’ll be at Walcot Gate, the park by Walcot Chapel, across the road and up a bit from The Bell. In which case, bring a picnic blanket and your own plate and cutlery, as well as your delicious raw food dish.
If it’s WET we’ll be at The Love Lounge @ The Bell Inn, 103 Walcot Street, Bath BA1 5BW.
Please call Alison on 07989 416959 or Jonathan on 07740 706232 if you need to check our location.
Join us for a delicious shared raw food meal and delightful company.
New Venue for Positive Living Bath?
Positive Living Bath needs a new home, can you help?
2 weeks ago we reached a milestone: we outgrew The Love Lounge. It’s just over a year since Positive Living Bath was born, becoming a hub for positive and alternative events in and around Bath. We have well over 400 members and a full list of events going out as often as we can compile the information in emails to you.
On Sunday 27 March we had 2 events at The Love Lounge. With 20 guests for the film screening of ‘Simply Raw‘ and over 40 for the raw food potluck, the room was bursting at the seams! It was a standing buffet for many and the supply of played and cutlery was exhausted so some of us were eating off paper plates with teaspoons! What a great success!
So we are looking for a new home for our events and wonder if you know of a Bath venue that can host us? Or maybe you have access to a space you can offer? This might be an existing public venue, or better still a space that isn’t currently used for out-of-hours events so would be more likely to be available for our full programme. Perhaps a meeting room (etc) in an office or public building that isn’t presently used for events. We’d like to make our new home in one place and establish the Positive Living Bath vibe there.
We currently have a regular programme of Yoga on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, and Bellyfit on Saturday mornings. Also fortnightly Friday night parties for Cafe Grace raw food cafe and entertainment, plus a raw food shared meal once a month on Sunday evening …. And there are more people approaching us to host their workshops and regular classes.
Our wish list includes:
- a venue in central Bath
- space for 50 – 60
- somewhere available for all evenings and weekends
- parking nearby
- cheap or free room hire
- access to a kitchen with crockery/cutlery
- warm (for yoga)
Please have a think and let us know if you can offer a space or suggest somewhere you think would be suitable. All ideas gratefully received 
We look forward to hearing your suggestions.

We bring you a special hors d’oeuvre this month before our regular Raw Food Potluck – it’s a screening of the raw food film ‘Simply Raw: Reversing Diabetes in 30 days‘
This documentary follows 6 Americans with diabetes who switch to a raw, vegan diet in order to reverse the disease without pharmaceutical medication, with amazing results!
The DVD cover says:
“Our participants made extraordinary improvements in their physical and emotional health while eating simply raw foods. And it wasn’t just blood sugar that came down. Cholesterol, blood pressure, and weight, all came down where needed. Everyone on medications got off most of them. By the end of the 30 days the whole group felt physically and emotionally better. They were SIMPLY happier. If you work from your heart, it’s as simple as “change your ways, change your life”. Eat Simply Raw. Let the garden be your pharmacy.”
Do stay on for our raw food potluck at 6pm to find out what this “raw food stuff” in the film is all about.
When & where?
FREE, all welcome @ The Love Lounge
