Saturday 21st was an important evening for Hackney-Beit Sourik twinning links –
we hope it helps revive the link. Shorouq from from Beit Sourik spoke about the human
rights violations in Palestine and how they affect her village. She called for
a strengthening of the relation with Hackney that started some years ago and
(with the help of CADFA) has brought about ten people (women, children, one
man) to the UK and to schools, colleges
and community organisations in Hackney. The support of councillors and Baroness
Merel Ece was very encouraging.
The organisers did so well - there was wonderful decoration all round, home made food and cup cakes and a raffle to try and raise money for the visit.
Many thanks to all who came ... and if you live or work in Hackney, please do get in touch.
