SUNSHINE ART CORNER

Sunshine Art Corner was another wonderful project sponsored by Sunderland City Council, Links for Life, and Levelling UP, run by FODI. This program took place on Saturdays from 10 am to 12 pm and our service users enjoyed the drumming, dancing, games, and sharing food across different cultures. That was one of the most well-attended projects run by FODI for asylum-seekers and refugee families. This allowed them to go somewhere with their families on weekends, they had fun, made friends, and learned about different cultures. Huge thanks to the funders of this amazing project on behalf of our service users.
