Aims
The Hackney - Beit Surik Friendship Forum aim to:
- promote formal and informal links at all levels between the London Borough of Hackney and the Palestinian village of Beit Surik near Jerusalem, with an emphasis on grass roots friendship links.
- bring together various groups and communities in Hackney and Beit Surik to share their experiences and ideas.
- aim to provide resources that will enable interested groups to establish friendship links with groups in Beit Surik, and help you to keep in touch with each other.
If you are interested in helping the people of Beit Surik please contact us.
There is now a Twinning Committee in Beit Surik - if you live or work in Beit Surik please contact us and we will pass your details on to the Committee there.
We are part of the Britain - Palestine Twinning Network (Visit the website for more information if your town wishes to build twinning or friendship links with a Palestinian community).
