Nottingham Turkish Community President Mehmet Emin Aydinbas stated the purpose of the trip: “With the project of recognising our roots in life with the support of the International Turks and Relative Communities Presidency, Turkish or mixed families 18-25-year-olds living in the UK will be able to travel to their homeland, we aim to introduce Evliya Çelebi, whose literature is important for the Turkish population..
We would like to organize this journey to strengthen the ties between our young people living in England with Turkish history, culture, literature, music and social values and to provide Turkish identity and reduce the effect of assimilation the most. Our project our pupil Turkey Istanbul, the capital Ankara, Konya and Mevlana city of world cultural heritage will take place in Nevsehir. By asking each traveller to write in their travel book, their impressions, their feelings and impressions; we aim to make the memories of our youth permanent and root out the feelings of belonging to the motherland. Our county is limited to 25 young people.”
