The Togetherness Café: Food My Mother Used to Make 

This program is inspired by the love and care our mothers or mother figures provided, creating a space where people from all walks of life can connect, support one another, and share traditions.

  • Build Connections: A welcoming space for all ages, languages, and communities.
  • Tackle Challenges Together: Create networks of support and find solutions collectively.
  • Honour Traditions: Share food, stories, and cultural experiences that have shaped us.
