Come and create a faith Sun mural with us! A fun, creative afternoon for families of all faiths and none. Suitable for children up to 14 years.

- Come together as families for a fun afternoon.
- Explore how the Sun helps sustain us all.
- Create collages together, which will form a mural.
- Visit a Christian Church with an interesting history.
- Have tea together and celebrate!

In Mauritania on the banks of the Senegal River, a women’s cooperative uses solar energy to operate the borehole that supplies water to the market garden. This gives the women of the cooperative a regular income, as well as a rich variety of fruits and vegetables that promote the well-being of their children.
