Activity Description

The Yaadein group is focused on sharing the heritage created by the arrival of the Pakistani / Kashmiri community in Halifax, from the arrival of settlers in the 1950s through to the current period. The Yaadein group aims to preserve the memories and vocalise the contributions made by this community to Halifax. In this weekly group the first-generation South Asian migrants from Park Ward come together talk about their fond memories. They often reminiscence about their experiences and hurdles faced when they first arrived to the UK as first generation south Asian migrants and how they made the UK their new home

Also running at the same time is The Community Organisers listening sofa and coffee morning drop in is a unique experience, where a comfortable sofa becomes a focal point for meaningful conversations for members of the local community regarding their local area.
