4th Anniversary Memorial Picnic
On 24th June, over thirty of Workneh’s friends and family came together to remember him and celebrate his life.
As on previous years, Aster Belay, Workneh’s widow and the Chair of Workneh Dechasa Education Foundation, provided a wonderful spread of picnic foods and drinks.
This year we tried to make the event more fun for all ages.
Workneh Dechasa 4th Anniversary picnic 2023
Just a week to go before this years 4th Anniversary Picnic in Finsbury Park where we will be gathering to remember the life and work Workneh Dechasa, who sadly passed away four years ago.
Come and join us to meet old friends and help us raise funds to build a preschool in his memory in his birthplace near Guder, Oromia. After many challenges, in Oromia and in our organisation, we have the go-ahead to start serious fundraising.
Last year, lots of Workneh’s family, friends and colleagues enjoyed great food, lovely weather, East African sounds and good company. This year we hope we can make it better still.
We’ll provide:
- Food and soft drinks
- Merchandise for sale
- Music
- Games and challenges

The picnic location, pictured above, is close to the Endymion Gate, Endymion Road, London N4 1EH (also called New River gate). There are good public transport links.
Please come along and bring your family and friends. Last year’s event had a great atmosphere. If you can’t come and would like to support our efforts we have the donations page where you can contribute
