We are one today!

Come join us.

Hello everyone, I meant to send this message out on today’s email, but Substack settings confused me:

We are ONE today! In honour of the hours we’ve spent curating the Bee this past year, today’s first birthday edition is behind a paywall. If you’ve enjoyed our work, please consider subscribing or giving us a one-time tip.

We’re happy to unlock this edition for all if we can raise a few new subscriptions. This week, we spent a lot of time explaining the Iran war to young people and we covered a vigil by Iranians in Bath, available to our paid subscribers.

Substack has automatically added a 7-day free trial for unpaid subscribers, which is not helpful - we’d like to generate more paid subscriptions please, so if you are tempted to unlock for free, please know that is not what we need.

If everyone who receives this newsletter paid even £5 per month, the Bee would be sustainable. Substack doesn’t cater for pay-what-you-can subscriptions yet, but please consider using our one-time tip link to do so.

If you are already a paid supporter, thank you! It’s been an amazing journey already: we feel we know more about what’s happening in our city - we hope you do too. I’ll plan a cake soon- and you can come see us in person at Curious Minds.
