Slam dunk! Londoners will perform poetry, comedy and sing for the youth. Represent!
The Muslim Youth Helpline is a volunteer ran support group, providing resources through e-mailing and personalised counselling for young people.
This 23rd September 2011, Muslim Youth Helpline will be hosting a unique 'Live Eid Slam', an evening of live music and entertainment that is open to all. The celebratory event is a fantastic boost to enjoy post-Eid with friends and help the socially active cause.
A poetry culture is growing in London and the Live Eid Slam is another momentous occasion to hear new young talent reclaiming their streets in whichever style they can. Entertainment will include creative expression through poetry, comedy, spoken word and singing.
