Meet Shereen.
You may of seen her busy behind the bar at the old nun or even sitting on cake (.sit) upstairs at the old nun. But if you were at the old nun last night you would of seen her ringing in the Kurdish new year whilst fundraising for her home.
Newroz marks the beginning of a new life cycle as spring arrives not just a seasonal marker but one that defines Kurdish identity and resilience. A message of freedom. A message that resonates with the nuns.
There is still time to donate with QR codes around the pub all week follow .newfreedom
Shereen, we love you, you absolute fu***ng icon.
