Building Bridges in Tower Hamlets for Women

Today I met with an organisation to pursue an opportunity for women to connect and learn about each other, the idea would be that women should learn about each others’ cultures primarily from each other. Ideas inculde finding local women who would be prepared to talk about some aspect of their lives or work – e.g. faith, history, food, fashion. Asking women involved with existing projects in Tower Hamlets to come and tell everyone else about them enabling discussions on various topics of interest in small groups. Finding women who are able to perform musically, or bring their favourite music on CD perhaps If necessary, bringing in one ‘inspirational speaker’ per event and/ musicians from outside.

These projects are just what we need in Tower Hamlets to bring forward society and help bridge the gap of poverty and culture.
