Dancing Queens
Celebrate movement, connection, and joy! Every Thursday, 7–8pm, join Dancing Queens, hosted by the Black Women’s Health Forum at the African and Caribbean Centre, funded by Cllr Lucile Harvey. Sessions are free – simply turn up and register on the day. Donations support women in need, including Annie, who is fighting to stay in Liverpool after 20 years of struggle.
