Youth links working hard towards the next exchange

The CADFA youth links have been going even stronger since the exchange visit in June. The group is growing a bit all the time. The young people involved are taking part in stalls and demonstrations about the situation of their friends in Palestine at the moment. They are also baking cakes to raise money for their planned exchange in July 2016. GOOD LUCK TO THEM ALL! They are quite inspiring...

Twinning in Action News

The Twinning in Action project is continuing and we are happy as we said in the last post to be able to include the second half of the project (visits to Palestine) after a year of uncertainty.

But there is a grim situation in Palestine at the moment. Our friends in Palestine are receiving horrible news every day. Several students from the Al Quds University have been killed.  And others have been injured or arrested by the Israeli army.  *We are deeply sorry to hear that Nadine's cousin has been killed and send our deepest sympathy to the whole family.*

CADFA in London are busy with letters, petitions, demonstrations etc for human rights and saying....

The next exchange for the Twinning in Action project is the Leaders' visit to Palestine. This was to have been in August but the Erasmus + answer did not come until September. We thought we would run the visit at the end of November but because of events in Palestine now,  it is not a suitable time, so we have set a date early in Februrary, right before the student exchange -  We will keep an eye on the situation of course but we very much hope that this will go ahead.
