Ukrainian Day at Norwich Castle
About this Event
The Ukrainian Community of Norfolk, in collaboration with the East Centre (UEA), Norfolk County Council, Norwich Castle, the Rotary Club of East Anglia, and Kryla Culture CIC, is delighted to announce Ukrainian Day at Norwich Castle. The event will feature a wide range of activities, including exhibitions, a charity fair, a raffle, a bake sale, craft workshops, and a film screening ’The Guardians of Christmas’ (Ukrainian with English subtitles). Everyone is welcome to attend.
Ukrainian Day forms part of Ukrainian Week, a nationwide initiative taking place across UK universities following the UK-Ukraine Twinning Initiative. The event celebrates Ukrainian culture, education, and the strong partnership between the United Kingdom and Ukraine, while also serving as a fundraiser to support Ukrainian orphans through a Christmas gift appeal.
Donations collected during the event will be used to purchase and prepare Christmas gifts for children at the Berdychiv Specialized School in the Zhytomyr region of Ukraine. The gifts will be packed and delivered to the school in time for the festive season.
