As winter approaches, Barnet is turning up the warmth with a celebration of community spirit! Join us for Warmth in Unity, an event all about bringing together our borough’s rich cultural diversity and showing the incredible strength of coming together.
This special event is a collaboration between our partners at Barnet Social Prescribing and the Barnet Wellbeing Service - we are all united by a shared vision of connection and inclusion.
At Meridian Wellbeing, we see diversity as a source of strength and pride. Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy runs through everything we do and can be seen in the diversity of our staff, volunteers, and service users. Together with our partners, we celebrate the vibrant mix of cultures, traditions, and voices that make Barnet unique.
Across the country and the world, we can see how important it is to focus on what unites us. In Barnet, we want to celebrate what we share - our resilience, creativity, and care for one another. When we come together, we create a stronger, healthier, and happier community.
We are fortunate that Barnet Council champions these values through its Fair Barnet Roadmap, a bold plan to celebrate diversity and ensure equity for all. Meridian Wellbeing proudly supports this vision through projects like our Wellbeing Cafes and services for Hong Kong BN(O) status holders. Events like Warmth in Unity also bring this shared commitment to life.
Warmth in Unity is more than a celebration - it’s a chance to connect, learn, and share. This event shines a spotlight on the incredible work of local organisations that support different communities across Barnet, helping our borough thrive.
Here’s what you can look forward to:
Expect laughter, music, and flavours from around the world, all in one welcoming space.
Where? The Meritage Centre, Church End, Hendon, NW4 4JT
When? Wednesday 27th November, 11 AM – 1 PM
The event is free and open to all. Please register by following this link.
This is your chance to experience Barnet in all its colours, sounds, and flavours. Whether you come for the performances, the food, or simply to meet your neighbours, you’ll leave with something even more valuable, a sense of belonging.
Together, we can make Barnet a place where every voice is heard and every culture is celebrated. So, wrap up warm (though only until you’re inside) and join us for an event filled with connection, culture, and community spirit. Because when we are united, we all thrive.
