The FODI Women’s Group came together at Trinity Church to celebrate Refugee Week with a day of connection, wellbeing and community spirit.
The event brought women together to share a wonderful selection of homemade dishes, reflecting the rich cultures and traditions within our community. Sharing food provided an opportunity for conversation, friendship and learning, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for everyone involved.
Participants also enjoyed a wellbeing session that included yoga, dance and mindfulness activities. These sessions encouraged relaxation, self-expression and positive mental wellbeing, while providing a space for women to connect and support one another.
Refugee Week is an important opportunity to celebrate the contributions, resilience and experiences of refugees and people seeking sanctuary. Our gathering highlighted the power of community in bringing people together, fostering understanding and creating a sense of belonging.
We would like to thank everyone who attended and contributed to making the day such a positive and memorable celebration.
