Media

The themes for sessions are chosen by the participants. They are universal so everyone can relate to them, e.g. festivals, marriage, education and personal safety. As is the traditional custom with ALP, there is also a celebratory element with some music, singing or dancing.

The benefits are the enriching experience of meeting people from different cultures, contributing to a project working against racism and supporting refugees, sharing Scots culture, as well as further practise in literacy, both reading and writing.
