Working with the Sikh community through the Sikh Soldiers Organisation and their Community Ambassador Hardeep Sahota; their Community Partners for their Theatre of Sanctuary work, IASK (Immigration & Asylum Support Kirklees) and The Ukrainian British Friendship Group; and local refugee and asylum seeker groups via 6 Million Plus, Lawrence Batley Theatre in Huddersfield will bring people together across different communities to reflect creatively on what freedom meant during the Second World War and what it means now.

The creative workshops will enable a variety of distinctive and culturally diverse Kirklees experiences to be reflected in the final event, as well as a variety of art forms and creativity, creating fresh understanding and connections.
