A yoga and wellness fundraiser has raised over £1,700 for Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP).

Hosted by Marlow Palestine Solidarity and High Wycombe PSC, the event took place at Flow Studio in Marlow on Friday, November 21.

Local yoga instructor Joelle Pettitt, of Nelumbo Yoga, led the yoga and sound meditation sessions.

The fundraiser also featured market stalls selling Zaytoun fair-trade Palestinian products, MAP merchandise, homemade cakes, handmade Tatreez-embroidered gifts, and PSC products and other merchandise.

Attendees praised the event for its peaceful atmosphere and the opportunity to support Palestinians through their purchases.

Marlow Palestine Solidarity and High Wycombe PSC expressed their gratitude to Flow Studio in Marlow for providing the space for the event.

Their support was "vital" in enabling the fundraiser, they said.

The groups also extended thanks to everyone who attended, donated, supported the stalls, and contributed to the community spirit of the evening.

The funds raised will go directly to MAP's medical and humanitarian work supporting Palestinians facing crisis and hardship.
