Welcoming Syrian Refugee Families to Walthamstow- Community Meeting
Walthamstow has a proud tradition of being a place of welcome and will shortly extend this to Syrian refugee families. Ahead of this there will be a community meeting on
Thursday 9th November from 6.00pm to 8.00pm at Blackhorse Road Baptist Church Hall
to help plan support for Syrian refugee families in Waltham Forest. This event will allow those interested in supporting this work to meet other local community groups, hear about plans and help coordinate community support with other groups and residents in Waltham Forest. Speakers will be from Walthamstow Migrants' Action Group, Single Housing Project and Refugee Welcome Waltham Forest and refreshments will be available. Click here for the flyer and booking info.

Refugee Concert- Thursday 2nd November
For a week in late October Music Action International will bring together a group of teenage refugee and asylum seekers to create and play music from their own homelands, sharing language, music styles and approaches they love, to collaborate and produce something totally unique. Regular music activity provides relief from the stresses caused by their traumatic experiences, and encourages friendships with other young people. The project culminates with a performance of their work at St. Mary’s Music Hall in Walthamstow village on Thursday 2nd November supporting the London Syrian Ensemble, and is generously supported by Martha Tilston who donated her fee from her gig in August.
Tickets available on the door and online:
