We are delighted to announce that MACFEST is one of the winners of the prestigious 2021 Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service
Many congratulations to Qaisra Shahraz MBE, our founder and executive director and our big Mac Fest team on this award
We have been chosen for connecting communities, promoting social inclusion and overcoming barriers.
Thank you so much to Patsy Kane OBE For nominating us and Katherine Rosati from Stockport War Memorial Art Gallery and Kevin Green of Health Academy school in Manchester for their testimonials of support!
Of course the fab work of our team and volunteers needs to be celebrated.
We’re incredibly grateful to our volunteers who have supported our delivery. This year we’ve very quickly had to make and adapt a physical festival into something almost 100% digital and needless to say this would not be possible without the hard work and sheer dedication of our volunteers, using their amazing skills both digitally and physically! We salute them all.
