Ever wanted to learn to salsa dance, make salsa or simply soul search? Model and actress Lily Cole has teamed up with Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia begging fame to create a social media platform called impossible.com that aims to get the best out of altruism across the world. The ambitious social enterprise sees members make wishes and others offer to help out for free, and has its preview night in Manchester at Kosmonaut on Wednesday, where Cole will be on hand to hear any wishes you may have (within reason – don’t ask to be an astronaut or something) and answer any questions you might have about this bold move in bartering and paying it forward. If a utopic favour-swapping website sounds right up your street head to the free event to find out what’s going on. But you probably also want to go and see Lily Cole don’t you? Go on then, your wish is our command.
Wed 18 Dec, Kosmonaut, 10 Tariff Street, M1 2FF, 6.30pm, FREE – registration recommended, eventbrite.co.uk
