Pizza and Pancake Celebration

At 17th of February was super fun at our NB4U monthly get-together!

We were thrilled to have the Mayor of Sutton Coldfield join us for a special pizza and pancake celebration. Karolina and Tereza brought lots of energy, encouraging everyone to join in with Ukrainian songs and dance.

Thanks to all the volunteers who made this event possible, we could not have managed without the support of Jody, Mark, Chrissie, Jenny and Vic.

Also, a shoutout to the Shaw Trust and RMC for supporting those looking for jobs and offering helpful advice. Everyone had a fantastic time, and it was a great chance to connect with our community!

Winter Social Event

The Winter Social Event at the Baptist Church was a wonderful occasion where Ukrainian guests gathered for socializing and delightful treats.

The participation of diverse guests of all ages strengthened relationships within the Ukrainian community. The menu featuring treats from Marks & Spencer created a festive atmosphere, and in the children’s room, kids enjoyed their time engaging in drawing and crafting.

As a result, the Ukrainian Winter Social Event left bright memories, fostering a friendly atmosphere for all the guests.
