Lockdown2 Weekend2. Here are more isolation suggestions from Camdenist, helping you to get through it in style

 Today: big up your chest 

 20% off 'IST' tees 

It's the weekend, and since lockdown rumbles on regardless, we're giving you the chance to brighten up your life today with 20% off the rather lovely Camdenist merch range. Whether you're a

realist, hedonist, optimist or activist

, there's a slogan tee for you, in a load of different colours. Produced with only natural materials using 100% renewable energy, they are also circular, meaning you can freepost it back when it eventually wears out, for recycling - and a discount on a new one.

   Lockdown art to support local women  

A new exhibition showcasing women artists' responses to lockdown launched online this week. Originally intended to be displayed at Kentish Town's Zabludowicz Collection, sales of the work will go towards supporting local charity Women + Health, who have been supporting isolated and vulnerable women in overcoming health challenges for the past 30 years. Browse the exhibition and find something to cheer up your own four walls here.

 A lesson in solidarity 

Conway Hall's Ethical Society are on hand throughout lockdown with a series of thought-provoking online talks every Sunday afternoon. This weekend they'll be exploring the ways in which we can turn to one another in times of crisis, with the help of sociology professor Marina Sitrin. Sign up to hear the uplifting stories she has collected of people around the world who are showing solidarity and facilitating mutual aid during a rocky year.
