We organised a fun day at the park in celebration of Eid al-Adha on 12 September. Approximately 200 Syrians got together at Cringle Park for games, tea, and coffee. It was an opportunity for the community to get together and enjoy the Eid holiday.
We screened 'Queens of Syria' on 6 November by director Yasmin Fedda at our office. The movie documented the two-month journey of Syrian refugee women in producing a play in Jordan, as well as the various barriers that they overcame to successfully put on this play.
We attended a dinner organised by the Union of Medical Care and Relief Organisation (USSOM) on 3 September which brought together the Syrian community. That dinner followed their annual meeting held in Manchester during that weekend. USSOM talked about their work in Syria, and we also delivered a speech at the dinner about our organisation and our activities.
On Sunday 10th July, we had our 6th annual fun day in Manchester at Levenshulme High School. This was a hugely successful event that bought together over 1600 Syrians from across the UK to connect with their local communities and to celebrate Eid El-Fitr.
We enjoyed a day out on the bank holiday Monday of 30 May in York and Bolton Abbey. We departed from Manchester in two buses and went to various destinations within these areas. If was a sunny relaxing and enjoyable day for all members of the family!
