Hello Derby: A Festival of Welcome was a great celebration of the contribution refugees make to life in the UK, held at the Museum of Making. We sang, we danced, we ate amazing food – including Freedom Falafel and Party Papusa’s from Maison Foo – and we learned more about the situations faced by people seeking refuge in this country. All as part of Refugee Week 2024, celebrating #OurHome.
The Media Room created this photo essay with all the highlights from the day, including stories from those in Derbyshire Refugee Solidarity‘s music group. Watch below:
