Over 30 women attended a “Sharing the Light” evening at the Kitchen Table Cafe in East Ham on Wednesday 10th March. The event was organised by Shirley Biro (from St. Barts Church) and Nicola Vidamour (the local Methodist Minister) following their participation in a “Building Bridges” training course run by Conflict and Change. ‘Building Bridges’ (Faiths in Action) is a four day training for women in Newham to gain tools and skills in running interfaith events with the aim of building bridges across faiths in their communities. The hope is that women, after having completed the training, will run an event (or events) which will include people from different faiths which will enable participants to meet and take part in shared conversation or activity. ‘Sharing the light’ is a great example of such event.

On Saturday 20th January we hosted an event for all our neighbours in Streatfeild Avenue. This party was planned and organized by a few of our volunteers alongside Anita, whom we got to know at a Street Party we organized a year ago and who lives on the street. Our hope for this event was that people would get to know their neighbours and start conversations that hardly ever happened before. |
