When: | Monthly We meet on different days of the week |
Meeting places vary but will mostly be in central Bristol, in various cafes and restaurants that offer an authentic experience. Some meetings take place in Community Centres, Faith Spaces, and Civic Buildings. Group members receive an email with full details of the venue including a map to help explain the location and directions.
We aim to explore diversity in the broadest sense of the word. Whilst we started by exploring the cuisine of different countries we will also look at gender and sexuality, and disability.
We explore diversity using food / craft / film / talks / discussion. Group members will be invited to bring something to each group meeting and will share what we know about the countries and the subjects we explore.
We have already been to St Pauls Learning Centre where we shared a meal. and some facts about Ethiopia and Bob Marley. We went to Bath for Chinese New Year celebrations and visited the former home of Haile Selassie.
There are events and commemorations during the year that we hope to attend, some of which will be in the evening or at the weekend.
Our activities will develop over time to take into account suggestions made by group members.
