Dear Members and Friends,

On behalf of the Multicultural Forum Trustees I would like to wish all our members, friends and partners a Merry Christmas and a successful 2012.

2011 has been a good year for us in that we now have concrete plans to work closer with you and we want to see 2012 involve you more in our plans and activities.  Please let us know how you can help make our Forum more responsive to the needs of your communities.

We want to have you join us in our Forum meetings.  Those meetings present an opportunity for all community groups and interested parties to get together - raise issues, explore and debate them with one another in order to find practical soultions to your concerns. MF are now in a position to deliver services to meet needs that are not being met elsewhere to improve the opportunites of access and engagement in a variety of ways but in order to do that we need to hear from you. So lets all work together to achieve this. Do come to the forum meetings share your thoughts, get involved with us or just listen for now if you like. We had our last forum meeting at the end of the Interfaith Walk on the 26th November. To know our next meetings please click here.

We are also beginning to plan for next year's Mosaic Festival of Diversity on the 23rd June 2012 where we are launching the Basingstoke Summer  Festival Season with our vey own event  to be held in Glebe Gardens where our new offices will be.  Many of you were involved in our last big event  held in Eastrop Park last July and many more of you wanted to be so please get in touch with us with your ideas and what you would like to do for the  festival and we can make it truly fun for Basingstoke and truly special for our communities.

From April 2012 we will have office space availble for third sector charities and organisations that focus specifically on hard to reach and diverse comunities. Please get in touch at yur earliest convenience if you want to be a part of The Mosaic. Watch this space for more about our plans for Chute House from which we will launch The Mosaic Centre for Diversity Learning and Development.
In the meantime, enjoy the rest of the seasonal cheer and have a good break if you can!
