Creating Communities
This book has been created and curated by individuals living in London from all over the world. We were brought together by a project called Full Circle, where refugees, migrants and people born in the UK came together to share creative and cultural experiences. In its pages you will find a collection of recipes, stories and ideas from our different backgrounds to show you some traditional and not-so-traditional ways of cooking, crafting and gardening at home and in your community.
Alone or with others, let us take you on a journey from crafting homemade bird feeders, to baking Syrian dates ma’amoul (celebratory cookies) or growing your own herbs for aromatic teas.
For people who are new to the UK, we hope this book can help you learn about the many different people who live here. And for people who have lived in the UK for a long time, we hope to show you that there is a small world of many different cultures here for you to explore.
