🌟 Saturday Kids Club at Bora Shabaa! 🌟

Our Kids Club is a fun, welcoming and safe space where children can spend time together, make friends, play, get creative and enjoy being part of the Bora Shabaa community. 💛

A huge part of what makes the club so special is our wonderful Community Support & Skills Worker, Ella, who runs the sessions every week. Ella puts so much care, energy and hard work into creating a space where every child feels welcomed and included 😊

Ella is also safeguarding trained, helping us make sure the wellbeing and safety of our children always comes first.

📅 Every Saturday
🕛 12pm–2pm
📍 Bora Shabaa Refugee Community Organisation

We’re incredibly grateful to Ella for everything she puts into the club and, most importantly, for all the smiles she brings to our young people each week. 🌈

Come along and join us this Saturday! 💛

We are still smiling after an incredible Food, Music and Courage Festival! ❤️

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who helped make the festival such a success. To our organisers, guest speakers, volunteers, performers, speakers, food providers, partners, and funders - thank you for your generosity, enthusiasm and commitment.

To everyone who attended, thank you for bringing such lovely energy to the day. Seeing people come together to share food, enjoy music, hear stories, and build connections was so inspiring.

The festival was a celebration of courage, and the rich diversity that strengthens our Hull communities. We are proud to have created a space where people could come together and learn from one another.

Thank you all for being part of it. We couldn't have done it without you! ❤️

We are delighted to introduce Dr. Mavuto K Banda as the new Chairman of Bora Shabaa Refugee Community Organisation.

Dr. Banda is an interdisciplinary human geographer and development specialist with more than 16 years of experience across academia, policy, and international development.

He holds a PhD from the University of Hull, where his research focused on child labour, social justice, and global value chains in sub-Saharan Africa.

Throughout his career, he has worked closely with communities, governments, and international organisations to deliver meaningful change.

His expertise in climate resilience, sustainable livelihoods, and global inequalities has contributed to programmes that have supported over 14,000 households through renewable energy, environmental restoration, and community development initiatives.

Beyond research and programme leadership, Dr. Banda is passionate about inclusive education, community engagement, and empowering vulnerable groups. He also serves on the Hull Youth Justice Services panel, supporting community-based decision-making and social inclusion.

As Chairman, he brings a strong vision for collaboration, empowerment, and sustainable support for refugee communities. We are excited to welcome his leadership and look forward to the positive impact ahead!

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Banda on his new role 👏🏿
