Join us on Sunday, 22nd June 2025, at the Dorchester Hotel in London for a stellar evening supporting healing for Palestinians.
Organised by Voices of Palestine and The Hanoon Foundation, this third edition aims to raise vital funds to train medics and allied health professionals in physical and mental rehabilitation. We are partnering with a centre in Bethlehem, which will act as the base for delivering the rehabilitation service and bolstering this much-needed aspect of medical care for Gaza and the West Bank.

Performance
Le Trio Joubran, comprised of three brothers hailing from a Palestinian family with a rich lineage of ‘Oud’ makers and players spanning four generations, have forged an extraordinary path in the world of music. Samir, Wissam, and Adnan have transformed the ‘Oud’, an ancient stringed instrument, into their life’s passion and a profound skill.
We look forward to seeing you.
