SKATE THROUGH YOUR PROBLEMS is a video installation created for YouTube by Elise Longden that documents how she founded a rollerskating community in Liverpool during the pandemic. Elise demonstrates the magical power of skates on rebuilding mental health and togetherness in times of social exclusion and isolation.

BLANKETS by Emily McFarlane explores heartache and healing through her lyrics, written and performed by Emily herself.
