Christmas Fundraising Dinner with Cultural Fashion Show

We are truly grateful to everyone who joined us for the Welcome to the UK Christmas Fundraising Dinner. Your presence made the day so special, and we were honoured to have our Local Councillors in attendance to support this initiative.

A huge thank you to all the generous donors who contributed raffle prizes, including Beauty By Kate, Keisha’s Accessories, Beauty Harmony Mari, Fashion Hut, and our anonymous donors. Your kindness added a touch of excitement and joy to the event.

The food was absolutely fantastic, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to Gulshan Restaurant for preparing such a delicious buffet—it was a true highlight!

Our cultural fashion show was an incredible success, with our amazing volunteer models confidently showcasing traditional costumes from Albania, Iraq (Kurdish), Algeria, Ukraine, and Malaysia. The catwalk was alive with colour, heritage, and pride!

We also had beautiful displays of items from these countries and more, offering a wonderful glimpse into the richness of our diverse community.

Thank you once again to everyone who supported, attended, and contributed. Together, we celebrated unity, culture, and new beginnings.
