The event is supported by the Italian Cultural Association and Exeter Communities Together. All proceeds will be donated to Refugee Support Devon, a charity formed in 2001 to support refugees and their families.

It aims to help refugees to settle successfully in the community so they can reach their full potential, rebuild their lives in safety and dignity and be treated with respect and understanding as equal members of society.
