Communities unite with Wokingham DC again to share culture
An event bringing together members of Woodley Age Concern and members of the Indian Community Centre will take place next week (March 7).
The day of food sharing, cultural activities, music and dance aims to repeat the success of a well-received event last year in which people from the Indian Community Centre off Norris Road, Reading visited Woodley Day Centre and met members of Woodley Age Concern to build relationships and share experiences.
The day has been organised jointly by Woodley Age Concern and Wokingham District Council.
This time members of Woodley Age Concern will be visiting the Indian Community Centre (ICC) to share food and entertainment again.
Mr Ghosh, an ICC Trustee said: “I’m looking forward to welcoming WAC members to the ICC and hope for another enjoyable day of cross-cultural integration, which can only happen when we get to know each other better.”
Wokingham District Council’s champion for older people and co-chair of the Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) Forum, Cllr Bob Wyatt, said: “We are delighted to promote this event which is an excellent example of different communities coming together to share and celebrate their individuality, customs and culture. The council will continue to assist in the process of building relations and understanding between the diverse range of communities within the district.”
