We will also have a store cleaning day this Sunday from 2pm so groups come by and we can make the store a little more usable.

Any leftovers will be taken to Westhill to be distributed there. WESTHILL WELCOMES REFUGEES, NOT RACISM! External ABERDEEN ANTI-FASCIST ALLIANCE Saturday August 23rd 17:00-19:00 BST Community groups and local residents are gathering on Saturday 23 August, from 5-7pm, for a peaceful event outside the Hampton Hotel on Straik Road, Westhill. There will be food, music, colourful banners and messages of hope for the refugees living there. Why Now? Throughout August, angry protesters have targeted people seeking asylum across the UK, standing outside their homes and shouting threats and abuse. This has happened at two hotels in Aberdeen. Westhill is their next target. These protesters - often bussed in from all over Scotland - say it's about local concerns. So why are they targeting vulnerable people who have nothing to do with government cuts to public services? Protesters have zero evidence for their accusations about hotel residents, who are stuck here while the Home Office deals with a backlog of paperwork, and who volunteered to clear our parks after Storm Floris. Imagine fleeing your home, leaving everything behind to escape war or persecution, and suddenly finding yourself not only alone in a new country, but unable to go outside because a terrifying mob is threatening your life. This is _our_ community and we cannot let our neighbours be treated this way. If you're thinking, "plenty of folk will be there, I'll go if they turn up again," please note: Saturday will be the fifth such demonstration in our area in just three weeks - it is vital we stand together NOW and reject this message of hate! Please join us in a spirit of friendship and compassion to say "Our Community Cares." Westhill welcomes refugees, not racism!

Weekly Newsletter : Aberdeen Social Centre : Wed 13-Aug-2025

by Aberdeen Social Centre - Newsletter

ASC WEEKLY NEWSLETTER ------------------------- News from Wed 13-Aug-2025 We have another week where hatred of immigrants is being stoked in Aberdeen. So lets get this straight, we are all aware that people are being squeezed. Real terms wages have not increased since 2005 yet inflation has ballooned, the cost of food, energy and the basic necessities, almost 3 times more expensive over the last 30 years. Average house prices 4.6 times more expensive, with most of that happening in the 2000s. We are all feeling it, but some of us want to blame the people who just got here, not the successive governments who have put private profit before the well-being of the people in the UK. We are calling on everyone to share this and get people out to the Lang Stacht this Saturday at 5:30 to send a message. Refugees are welcome here, we are all in the same boat, lets target the people with their hand on the tiller. The Radical Cafe will also be back this Saturday, we will not have Vegan Bay to provide us with delicious rowies, so please bring home bakes if you can. ------------------------- UPCOMING EVENTS: Events for the next two weeks, for more info check out our Website [1]. ------------------------- SOCIALIST WORKERS PARTY Meeting Room Online SOCIALIST WORKERS PARTY Thursday August 14th 18:00-19:00 BST Weekly meeting ABERDEEN BUTCH CLUB CANCELLED Meeting Room ABERDEEN BUTCH CLUB Friday August 15th 18:00-20:00 BST Build kinship and solidarity with other butch lesbians (age 18+) MOURN THE DEAD, FIGHT FOR THE LIVING!

Weekly Newsletter : CALL TO ACTION!!! : ASC : Wed 06-Aug-2025

by Aberdeen Social Centre - Newsletter

ASC WEEKLY NEWSLETTER ------------------------- News from Wed 06-Aug-2025 Well what a week!, and we still have this weekend to attend to. If you are not aware, there was a far-rIght racist protest last Saturday intent on attacking a hotel at the beach housing refugees. There was a counter protest by local anti-fascists, they were outnumbered but the protest didn't get to the hotel. They intend to be back this weekend, there is also a rally in Peterhead, and counter protests arranged, so: CALL TO ACTION! Share the two 'ALL OUT' events below with everyone who knows racism will not be tolerated in the North-East, and come along to the protest, we need numbers to send the message that racism will not pass. We also have the 18th anniversary of Hiroshima and CND have a film showing and Vigil on Friday and Saturday see the event below. Nuclear weapons are a blight on humanity. Peace and Rowies. ------------------------- UPCOMING EVENTS: Events for the next two weeks, for more info check out our Website [1]. ------------------------- AS YET UNNAMED CLIMATE JUSTICE COALITION Meeting Room UNNAMED CLIMATE JUSTICE GROUP Thursday August 7th 18:30-20:00 BST This unnamed climate group looks towards local climate activism in the north-east. MOURN THE DEAD, FIGHT FOR THE LIVING! External HEALTH CARE WORKERS 4 PALESTINE Friday August 8th 18:00-19:00 BST Aberdeen HCW for Peace urge you to act NOW to save our colleagues in Gaza and the starving, homeless population they serve. Outside the Suttie Centre, Foresterhill Health Campus. Aberdeen, AB25 2ZN CND FILM NIGHT Meeting Room CND Friday August 8th 19:00-22:00 BST Planned film night for the commemoration of Hiroshima and Nagasaki for the 50th anniversary. ALL OUT IN PETERHEAD External ABERDEEN TRADE UNION COUNCIL & DISABLED PEOPLE AGAINST THE CUTS Saturday August 9th 12:00-14:00 BST URGENT CALL TO ACTION Protest the far right in Peterhead [2] Aberdeen Trades Union Council is making an URGENT CALL TO ACTION to all our delegates, trade union members and associates. We have learned that the far right will be holding demonstrations in Peterhead AND Aberdeen this Saturday 9 August, both at 12 noon. It is imperative that we mobilise against them and challenge their narrative of hate and racism. In Peterhead, the so-called Peterhead United has organised a "family friendly" event. They will be condemning council cuts as do we, but will be turning their hatred on the wrong people. We need to turn out in force to tell them and their supporters that it is not the fault of immigrants and other marginalised groups. It is the rich amassing more and more of the wealth that are to blame. Please join our counter protest in Peterhead and show the far right that we stand united and steadfast to condemn racism in Scotland and across the world. Their rhetoric is designed to justify exploitative economies and attacks on the most vulnerable and we will oppose them at every turn. ALL OUT IN ABERDEEN External SCOTTISH PALESTINE SOLIDARITY CAMPAIGN & ABERDEEN ANTI-FASCIST ALLIANCE Saturday August 9th 12:00-15:00 BST ALL OUT THIS SATURDAY TO STAND AGAINST HATE, RACISM AND LIES. Regretfully Aberdeen, as the rest of Scotland, has too been plagued by the scourge of organised bigots and fascists who seek to divide our communities at the advantage of the ruling class. In a great show of cowardice, 100 of said individuals gathered last Saturday to threaten asylum seekers hosted in a hotel in Aberdeen. This hateful presence went unchallenged by Police Scotland and was not met by a sufficiently large number of citizens who reject this rhetoric of hate. This same group will be gathering again at the Links Road Hotel on Saturday 9th August at 12noon, attempting to spread the same lies about migrants and marginalised groups within our communities. We need your help more than ever to counter this hateful presence. We stand united and steadfast to condemn racism in Scotland and across the world. We condemn the racist, state-sponsored demonisation of brown people, and the associated colonial rhetoric. This rhetoric is designed to justify exploitative economies and attacks on the most vulnerable as well as imperialist projects across the world, not least the monstrous settler colonial project in Palestine. CND HIROSHIMA MEMORIAL External CND Saturday August 9th 15:30-17:00 BST Nagasaki and Hiroshima 89 Second to Midnight Vigil. Speeches, music and poetry with guest speaker Yu Aoki.

WE GOT THE STREETS External WE GOT THE STREETS Sunday August 3rd 14:00-18:00 BST _'Escapism has always been an adjective used to describe the dance. That's an outsider's view. Solidarity is what it really offers'_ Theo Parish DJ & Producer You are all invited to a dance I'm organising with others on Sunday 3rd August between 2pm - 6pm at Krakatoa. Given the dark and challenging times we're in, some may say, going dancing feels odd or even inappropriate. Some may say this is because in our society dancing in clubs or bars often equates to hedonism. But I would say, to dance, is to be human. We've been moving our bodies to music for millennia, long before capitalism commodified the 'dance'. 'We Got The Streets' is my contribution to re-commoning the dance, a space for people to move together, free up stress from within the body, experience some collective joy and energising us for whatever challenges may lay ahead. I look forward to welcoming many of you in Krakatoa on bank holiday Sunday.
