This July, we hosted our annual Summer Celebration at the Fitzherbert Centre, bringing together staff, service users, volunteers, fundraisers, and members of the local community. It was a beautiful day of connection, with something for everyone—from face painting and table tennis to outdoor games for the children, creating an inclusive and lively atmosphere for all ages.
We were honoured by a special guest appearance from Brighton & Hove’s new Mayor, Councillor Mohammed Asaduzzaman, who shared words of welcome and solidarity with our community. As the city’s first Muslim mayor, his presence highlighted our shared dedication to building a diverse, compassionate community for all.
Attendees enjoyed a delicious array of homemade food prepared by our volunteers and clients, as well as an incredible Voices-themed cake. The evening wrapped up with dancing, conversation, and laughter—a perfect close to a memorable celebration.
Thank you to Cllr and Mrs Asaduzzaman for joining us, and to all the volunteers, clients, and supporters who helped organise this wonderful event. It was a day filled with joy, connection, and the true spirit of Voices in Exile!
