Help bring a group of young people from the West Bank and Jerusalem to the UK in summer 2026

Story

Please help us to fundraise to bring a group of young Palestinians to the UK this summer to meet young people here and exchange stories about their lives.

You can help bring a group of young people from the West Bank and Jerusalem to Peterborough in summer 2026.

In July 2026, a group of 8 young people and 3 group leaders from Palestine will visit Peterborough before moving onto visiting other locations within the UK. They arrive in Peterborough on 10th July.

We have visits and activities planned for the whole day, including a local school visit, activities at Ferry Meadows and a social event in the evening.

They will stay in Peterborough overnight and before moving on to their next destination there will be time for a stroll around the city centre including a visit to the cathedral.

Youth visits give young Palestinians the opportunity to meet young people from the UK, share experiences together and tell each other about their lives. This is a window on the world for these young people and a window on Palestine for everyone they meet.

We would appreciate any help you can offer to support this visit to allow us to cover the costs of hospitality, accommodation and activities whilst they are here.

All funding will be going to CADFA help support their work in arranging these visits to the UK.

Building Hope | Voices from Palestine

CADFA (Camden Abu Dis Friendship Association) has been running wonderful youth visits from Palestine since 2006 as an important part of our work of raising awareness of the situation in Palestine and encouraging people to work for human rights. Since 2022, we have been working with even more partners across the country in a project that really lives up to its name: Building Hope | Voices from Palestine.

In the past year, we have run youth visits from Palestine to Wales, the North and to London. This time we hope to focus on East Anglia and the East Midlands as well as including a visit to London.

We are working to raise the money through co-operation between partners and individual donations as we have no external funding. We really appreciate your help
