We're really pleased to hear the JMO wholly condemning the appropriation of morris dancing for white supremacist purposes. There is no room for hate in folk #FolkAgainstFascism #blacklivesmatter
The Joint Morris Organisations wholly condemns and disassociates themselves from the sentiments expressed in an article recently published on a nationalist website. We hope the entire morris community would join us in rejecting the divisive narrative put forward by this article.

A message from our friends and sponsors at Nottingham Folk Dance Group
NFDG isn't on. But even if we're not meeting in person, we're still a community. We're not a group of dancers who have become friends - we are a group of friends who happen to dance. And that we will stay, even if the dancing is on hold for a few weeks. #stayinghome #community

With a heavy heart, we've had to close the club for the meantime due to the current #CoronavirusOutbreak . Keep following us here or checking our website at nfdg.org.uk/index.php for updates

I had a great time doing the Saturday night ceilidh, thanks to the Outlandish Knights, and to everyone who came and danced, for making it a great gig. #ivfdf

We’ve been asked by Charlotte from York to thank the kind person who gave her a blanket when she was sleeping. It’s been handed in to front desk now so collect it when you’re free :) #wholesome #KindnessMatters

ROOM CHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT We’re anticipating tonight’s bal being very popular so we’ve decided to swap venues for the the bal and the late night dancing. Late night dancing will now be in SH2 (upstairs, the green one) and the bal will be in SH1 (the big one downstairs)

CHANGE TO THE (PRINT) PROGRAMME The Scottish dance tonight with Edmund McIntosh and Christ Dewhurst and his Scottish Country Dance Band will be starting at 6pm and not 7pm as in the programme. Tell your friends! This dance has been sponsored by @rscdsdancescot

Attention societies! We currently only have two teams down for the display ceilidh :( Please sign up at the *front desk* to show us something your society does that can be performed in trainers/soft-soled shoes. It doesn't have to be polished and it can be as silly as you like

What are you up to this weekend? Why not go along to @2020Ivfdf ? It's being run in #Nottingham this year by a committee led by two NFDG members and will be a weekend full of #folk and #fun! Check out the schedule on their website: ivfdf2020.org.uk/

Can you help? A car bringing morris dancers from Glasgow has been involved in an accident. Everyone is fine but the dancers/musicians in the car may now not be able to make it to IVFDF. If you're coming from Scotland to IVFDF and have space for passengers, please get in touch!

We think it's lovely that our sponsors @NCT_Buses are celebrating #WorldBookDay by offering a free bus ticket if you show your book to the driver while boarding! This is what we'll be reading today - what about you? #folk #historicaldance #Nottingham

Update from @NCT_Buses - due to bridge closure, the 48 bus can't serve The Meadows between 10pm-6am - diverting via Trent Bridge & Wilford Lane to reach Clifton. Buses to the city not affected so shouldn't affect getting from NTU to sleeping venues/city centre #CliftonBridge

We advise everyone at IVFDF to follow #NHS guidance & wash their hands regularly. We can't provide hand sanitiser for all but official guidance is that soap & water is preferable. Appropriate soap will be provided - feel free to bring your own hand gel! #coronavirus #covid19

We’re sure if you asked them nicely, some agreement about music could be reached :P
