Dear Ionela,

 

I hope this finds you well. I work for a charity and social enterprise called Lift, we are working in partnership with the East European Advice Centre, supported by the Homeless Transition Fund on the East European Peer Navigator Project. I understand that  my colleagues contacted your organisation during the first phase of the project.

 

We are now looking for volunteers for our second phase. We are looking for people that speak any East European languages to be trained as Peer Navigators who will help migrants who may have found themselves homeless or at risk of homelessness.

 

I am sending this recruitment material to you as an organisation who might be able to distribute it or identify interested and suitable applicants. Would you be happy to do this? I have attached a recruitment flyer that has all the details and a poster. If you have any questions then please do get in touch.

 

A press-release can be found here on our website:

UK Premiere: Valentin Hotea's 'Roxanne' at the Romanian Cinematheque | ICR London, 29 Apr, 7pm

ICR London cordially invites you to the UK premiere of
Enescu Concerts Season, May Concert

Roxanne

Tuesday 29 April, 7pm | free entry
at ICR London, 1 Belgrave Square
The next film to be screened at the Romanian Cinematheque is Vali Hotea's Roxanne, one of the most unconventional attempts by a Romanian director to deal with the communist dictatorship and its lingering aftermath.

Set in the city of Bucharest 20 years after the Romanian Revolution, Roxanne tells the story of Tavi Ionescu, a nice but quite immature guy for his late 30s, who finds out from his Securitate (Secret Police) file that he might be the father of an unknown son. Starting his own investigation, Tavi is caught up in a complicated past that now comes to reveal ugly hidden truths, messing up his life and the lives of the ones close to him. For the first time, he is forced to make some really mature decisions.

International Film Festivals: Locarno, Sofia, Dublin, Cottbus, Anonimul.
Another masterpiece from the new Romanian wave! (Christian Jungen, NZZ am Sonntag, Switzerland)

When: 29 April, 7pm
Where: Romanian Cultural Institute, 1 Belgrave Square, London SW1X 8PH
In Romanian with English subtitles. 97 min.
Free entrance, but places are limited. Please confirm your attendance at  T: 020 7752 0134, E: office@icr-london.co.uk
