„Je to úžasná a důležitá událost pro Dover“
“Je skvělé vidět událost, která spojuje město a hrad”
“Úžasné a velkolepé – lucerny jsou krásné”
Stovky místních lidí nesou 500 ručně vyráběné lucerny a hvězdy se ukázaly ve středu 20th října pozdravit Amal a jít s ní v průvodu z Pencester Gardens až k zámku Dover. At the Castle a new Lighthouse of Stars was lit up as a sign of welcome and hope to those seeking safety and refuge.
Amal is a 3.5m tall puppet of a refugee child made by those who created War Horse. She is walking 8000km from the Syrian border across Europe to Manchester to highlight the plight of child refugees and raise awareness and understanding in the communities she visits.
Dover’s Future Foundry CIC, supported with a grant of £1,500 from the Town Council, organised the event in Dover involving children from local schools and members of the public. Thank you to everyone who supported Walk with Amal. Jste důkazem toho, že Dover je komunita, která se stará
Future Foundry have made a lovely film about their preparations about Walk with Amal which can be accessed here http://futurefoundry.org.uk/?page_id=3521.
