Chairman of Good Deed Circles, Saleh Uddin Talukdar said: “This event is held in memory of Jo Cox – 10th anniversary and everyone is welcome to come along, meet people and help make a positive difference in our community
“Together, we are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us. – Jo Cox MP.”
