About

Akwaaba Akwaaba is a volunteer-run social centre for migrants. We offer a space for rest, play, learning and mutual support. We believe that no-one is illegal. Our aim is to build community and foster care, cooperation and solidarity. Akwaaba Kids Akwaaba's children's project welcomes children of all ages and we look after 40+ young people each week. While parents/carers take part in workshops and classes, volunteer at the centre or just enjoy a break, we run fun and engaging activities for children including arts and crafts, dance workshops, martial arts, and skateboarding. Many Akwaaba families face severe hardship due to the 'hostile environment' and austerity. We are raising money to support the costs of the children's project, which include: toys, books for a children's library, games, arts and crafts materials, sports equipment, and trips.
