"PLUMP! is a space for London's BIPOC community. A space where we can cultivate our passions, share our perspectives, learn new things and get inspired by those around us."

Alecia Bryan and Harina Mokanan are the visionaries and creators behind this group. We were able to discuss with them all about seeing the need for a space for BIPOC in London to get together and share stories and have fun, in a place that they feel seen and heard and not looked at as the minority in that space - and PLUMP was born!

Starting in 2019 with a panel discussion about work-life balance, PLUMP has grown into so much more, offering many community events such as movie nights, rollerskating, dance parties and more!

PLUMP also is known for their program "The Exchange" -a multi-media sharing circle where each month they choose a topic and a medium (such as music or film) for community members who are interested in connecting, who wish to explore and be exposed to new and old works of creative arts while discussing the universal themes of human nature.

We discuss these programs and so much more in this episode of London's Pretty Cool.
