*Celebrate our diversity*
This event celebrates 40 years of cooperation, mutual aid and solidarity by Sumac Centre, since being established as the Rainbow Centre in 1984. Rainbow rented a rundown terrace of shops on Mansfield Road from 1985-2001, creating the community that bought the Sumac Centre in 2001. See more history here.
New beginnings are a comfort and can bring a warm sense of growing and learning from the previous year.
Therefore, we thought another Brinsley meal would be a great opportunity to come together and share those fresh new vibes.
Share hope and joy of our upcoming year, through food, entertainment, raffle and drinks within our compassionate community.
So come along to the all vegan community centre for 7pm and let’s keep building our community and tribe, let’s eat, talk and laugh together in the comforts of our family and friends.
