 n\nInteractive workshop:\nHang On\, Is That Actually True? Misinformation 
 Lab: Reading Between the Lies\n\nWe're bombarded daily with headlines\, st
 atistics\, and viral posts designed to make us feel something before we've
  had a chance to think. This interactive workshop gives you the tools to s
 pot the difference between real reporting and manipulation — and the confi
 dence to call it out.\nLed by science and political debunker Emma Monk\, y
 ou'll get hands-on practice spotting misinformation in the wild: faked hea
 dlines\, selectively cropped images\, misused statistics\, misrepresented 
 studies\, and the sneaky trick of dressing up opinion as fact. Working thr
 ough real examples pulled straight from the news\, you'll learn to ask the
  right questions every time a claim crosses your feed — what's the narrati
 ve? What context is missing? What am I being asked to feel?\n\nAbout your 
 host\nEmma Monk is a molecular biologist turned science and political debu
 nker. Her work has featured on BBC Radio 4's More or Less\, LBC's James O'
 Brien show\, Quiet Riot\, The Trawl podcast\, The Guardian\, and The New W
 orld. She writes the Monk Debunks: Beyond the Narrative Substack and runs 
 workshops teaching others how to spot and dig into misleading claims.\n\nP

  Centre\, we will move on to a local pub for a post event social. So from
