Events & Activities

A charity organisation with purpose.

As much as we focus a lot of our time and work on working with clients one-on-one, we also commit our efforts to organising and partaking in events for those in the community. We've included some past examples of these below.

Cooking Club

At the beginning of 2025, we started our Cooking Club, bringing asylum seekers and refugees together to cook, share stories, and enjoy a sense of community. Through food, conversation, and fun activities, participants have the chance to relax, connect, and feel part of a welcoming group.

Children's Activity Class

Our Children’s Activity Class ran every Saturday, giving asylum-seeking children living in contingency hotels a joyful space to express their creativity. A huge thank you to the Young Barnet Foundation for the funding to make this possible.

International Women's Day

In March 2025, we celebrated International Women’s Day in collaboration with Saracens! The day was full of creativity, music, delicious pizza, inspiring talks, and even some pampering. It was a wonderful opportunity for women to come together, have fun, and connect with each other in a welcoming space.

Barnet Community Awards

We were incredibly grateful to have been nominated for one of the 2024 Barnet Community Awards. This nomination meant so much to us, as it reflected the impact of our work in the community and the continued support of those who believed in our mission. We were proud to stand among so many outstanding local groups.
