Whitefoot Community News
Community is not a physical thing; it is something we all hold in our hearts. Community is first and foremost a feeling - a sense of acceptance, of belonging and feeling welcome and included. It is knowing that if someone needs help, support or a listening ear or an audience, the people who feel part of that community and are willing, provide what is needed. The centre is just that, the place that facilitates and makes welcome. We all add to it, and benefit from what we put into it.
Peace of Cake
"In times of darkness we feel it is our duty to spread as much light and love as we can. Peace of cake is about finding things in common when the world is forcing us apart. Please help us spread the peace all across the world. We need it now more than ever. Please share this video and have a Peace of Cake event in your area. We all stand in solidarity for a better tomorrow for our children."
-Asma Meer, Peace of Cake organiser
Goldsmiths Community Centre is proud of our long association with Peace of Cake, supporting communities to come together and celebrate what we have in common.
