On Friday, 31 October, ISRAAC Community Centre organised a special visit for members of
the Somali community in Sheffield to the Sheffield Town Hall, where they were warmly
received by the Lord Mayor of Sheffield and his son.

The visit was a celebration of ISRAAC’s strong partnership with the city and its ongoing
work as the Lord Mayor’s chosen charity. It offered a chance to highlight the valuable
contributions of the Somali community to Sheffield’s cultural and civic life.
ISRAAC Chairman Adam Yusuf and Treasurer Professor Geoff Green represented the
organisation at the event. They spoke about ISRAAC’s mission, current projects, and the
importance of working closely with the Lord Mayor to support community development
and promote inclusion across Sheffield.

Both the Lord Mayor and ISRAAC representatives expressed their shared commitment to
continue working together to create opportunities, strengthen community ties, and
celebrate the diversity that makes Sheffield such a vibrant city.
