Crystal Palace Friends of Palestine recently made the decision to focus on fundraising for Hope and Play.

Our event on Thursday is a great opportunity to hear first-hand from co-founder Iyas AlQasem about the vital work they are doing to bring hope, play, art and education to children in Gaza. Iyas will share more about their projects and can answer your questions.

We will also be joined by friends who will talk about time they have recently spent in Palestine and displaced Palestinians in Egypt.

 St John the Evangelist Church, Community Hall, 1 Sylvan Rd, SE19 2RX

  Thursday 9 April, 6pm - doors open for Palestinian food and the chance to talk to friends and supporters, visit our stalls and raffle.

 From 7-9pm - speakers and discussion.

 This event is completely free but you’ll need to book to secure your place and you can pre-order delicious Palestinian food to enjoy on the night. You can do that here.
