Community Kitchen supporting refugees

Ahlam Akram, Founder and Director of BASIRA, British Arabs Supporting Universal Women’s Rights, is supporting the reopening of the Highgate Newton Community Centre and the work of Mikhail and Ahlam in the new Community Kitchen. Ahlam hopes to mentor some of the recent arrivals from Afghanistan living around the centre in the new community cookery school. Mikhail and Ahlam intend to gather the community together to participate in the joys of preparing and sharing food alongside the sharing of stories.

There will also be talks and encouragement about breaking down barriers and anxieties that may exist for women. All women refugees are most welcome.
