SEDA would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Mr and Mrs Chandrawansa who kindly and lovingly hosted a Summer Fayre in London, raising a remarkable £600 for our training centre in Colombo.
Dharshana & Lisa attended this event to make a speech about the wonderful work taking place at the centre. People also donated their time and skills to provide massages, nail painting, cupcakes, ice creams, tea & coffee, and of course lots of delicious Sri Lankan food to the attending public. Thanks to the generosity of the sponsors, organisers and all those who helped and attended the fayre, we are able to keep the centre running for a further 2 months. |
Thank you everyone in the UK that attended the Annual SEDA 5 - a - side football tournament, helping to raise funds for our vocational training program.
It was a fun packed day in glorious sunshine with lots of fast passed footy, leading to... the eventual crowning of our first ever SEDA 5 - a - side champions in a very close final match. Thank you also for the cakes and cupcakes that were donated and sold on the day. A whopping £350 was raised which will keep us running for a whole month :o) Thank you to all those involved, we look forward to an even bigger and better tournament next year |
