The Sunrise Multicultural project is a registered Charity; we take a whole-family approach, aiming to empower children, young people and families to reach their full potential at home, at school and in employment. The majority of users are of Pakistani Muslim heritage. We strongly uphold the values of equality and diversity, and the rights of individuals to find their own way of understanding and accepting British values without losing their cultural identities.
We have a track record of 27 years and are currently funded by BBC Children in Need, Lloyds Foundation and The National Lottery Community Fund – Reaching Communities
Our core activities are:
Two Saturday clubs for children ages 5- 11, weekly Youth Group for children aged 11-14, two weekly youth club boys and girls separately aged 14-18, weekly boys football club, two weekly Ladies’ Drop-in. All activities are based in the most disadvantaged areas of Banbury. Sessions cover numerous topics to meet individual and local needs including English language, racism, drugs awareness, cyber safety, citizenship, cooking and healthy living. We bring together different communities in Banbury by joining together to celebrate cultural/religious festivals and organise regular outings for BAME families.
