Whitehawk hosts healthy fun day for all cultures

A free multi-cultural fun day for people of all ages in east Brighton packed with activities and useful information will be held on Wednesday 17 March from 10.30am to 3pm at Safety Net, above the Whitehawk Youth Centre next to Whitehawk Library.

It’s being run by the East Brighton Healthy Living Centre, a team of council and NHS professionals dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles and reducing health inequalities.

The event is open to all, but is likely to be of particular interest to people from Black and ethnic minority communities. Activities include:

  • Cookery demonstration with the Healthy Living Centre’s community cookery team
  • Music and entertainment
  • Hand and shoulder massage
  • Gardening sessions
  • Games and a supervised children’s play area

A delicious free lunch will be provided by Planet India, Moorish and other local businesses. There will also be information and advice about local services including:

  • Mernet – the Mediterranean Resources Network
  • The city’s Black and Minority Ethnic Community Partnership
  • Mosaic, the black and mixed parentage family group
  • General information on housing, finances and health issues.

The city’s community heath bus is also coming along to enable people to have one-to-one health consultations. The Whitehawk Youth Centre is on the numbers 1 and 1A bus routes so is easily accessible.

See here for more on this event and on a wide variety of initiatives that could help you improve your health, or phone the East Brighton Healthy Living Centre on 01273 294533.
