Thursday 30th November: Residente

"After taking a DNA test, Latin America's most decorated music artist, Rene Perez, AKA Residente, embarks on a global adventure, to trace the footsteps of his ancestors and record his latest album."

These events will be donation only - suggested donation £4 to cover costs, but whatever you can / want to contribute is welcome. Any funds we raise once costs are covered will contribute towards the work of the Anne Matthews Trust, providing sanctuary and critical education experiences for people of refugee and migrant backgrounds.

The bar will be open but there won't be food at these events so come with your belly full and hopefully leave with your heart and mind full <3

A big thanks to Annabie, Jeanette, Jeno, Panchita & Lita for making this happen :)

Rhodd yn unig fydd y digwyddiadau hyn - awgrymir cyfraniad o £4 i dalu costau, ond croesewir beth bynnag y gallwch / eisiau ei gyfrannu. Bydd unrhyw arian a godwn yn cyfrannu at waith Ymddiriedolaeth Anne Matthews, gan ddarparu noddfa a phrofiadau addysg hollbwysig i bobl o gefndiroedd ffoaduriaid a mudol :)

Bydd y bar ar agor ond ni fydd bwyd yn y digwyddiadau hyn felly dewch â'ch bol yn llawn a gobeithio gadewch gyda'ch calon a'ch meddwl yn llawn <3
