BruSheff Society

With '1001 Nights - The Arabian Journey  ☆'  as the theme for the fine evening, about 60 attendees comprising of members of the BruSheff Society made their way to the Sheffield Jesus Centre located at Broomspring Lane on the Saturday of June 14th. This annual event is being held yet again as a token of appreciation for the society's members who are graduating from their respective universities at the end of their academic year. The evening was filled with good music, scrumptious food and fun games, filling the room with laughter and   hopefully  offering an overall spectacular time for the attendees. One highlight of the evening was the short, but nevertheless still sweet, farewell speeches presented by representatives of the leavers, Amin Nordin and Shazrinah Shazali, where they took a moment to look back at the sweet memories of the past and look forward to the future they are going to embark on.  Also this year, the Best Dressed Award

And on evening of May 3rd, showtime . Special shout out to performers, volunteers as well as supporters who made time out of their busy schedule to make all of these possible! Thank YOU!

A number BruSheff members had made their way to West Concourse, Portland Building at the University of Nottingham on the evening of Wednesday, April 30th to attend one of the sessions.
