On 30 December, Rethink Rebuild Society organised a social gathering for the Syrian community in Manchester at the Werneth House in Oldham. Many Syrian families gathered to socialise and enjoy their time together. Children also enjoyed their time playing and having some fun with some competitions.
Between 9th and 11th December, RR was delighted to host a charity Bazaar in support of Iqraa School. Members from the local community in Manchester generously donated items that were sold at the bazaar.
The bazaar attracted a good turnout and was a good opportunity to reconnect and socialise with our lovely friends and visitors.
In partnership with Culture Entanglement, Rethink Rebuild Society hosted two community discussions in Arabic about TED Talks. On Sunday 28th November, Dr Nada Albunni talked about the idea behind TED Talks and how important it is for the Arab communities to get involved in this project which is a good way to learn about key issues being discussed in world nowadays.
On Friday 12 Nov 2021 we held our annual public meeting with the Syrian community in Manchester at Birch Community Centre. The meeting provided us the opportunity to give updates about the work we carried out in the last year most especially during the lockdown.
On Wed 10 Nov 2021, Rethink Rebuild Society hosted a session on domestic abuse. The session was delivered by Safety 4 Sisters and focused on what support and advice can be offered to women experience abuse (especially women from a migrant background) or to anyone that is concerned about a woman they know.
