More than 570 students and staff at the University of Sunderland enjoyed tasty dishes from around the world - and they didn't even need to leave campus!

The Global Food Festival, organised by the University’s REACH (Race, Ethnicity and Cultural Heritage) Network, the Students’ Union and Team Sunderland, took place at CitySpace at City campus and included an array of music, dancing and entertainment. 

An extensive menu was also on offer, from Indian and Greek to British classic, fish and chips.

The festival is based on the concept that food unites us all, bringing people together by celebrating diversity through our common love for tasty and nutritious food. 

The event encompasses both equality and inclusion, as staff and students share cuisines from across the world, as well as representing both staff and students who come from a range of diverse backgrounds and cultures.
