Called Storywala, the solar-powered vintage caravan will officially launch at Bradford Arts Centre on August 8, 2026. Rahila Hussain, co-director of BSAF, said: “Since Bradford South Asian Festival was founded in 2020, everything we’ve created has started with people. Ahead of its official launch, Storywala has already appeared at major community events, including Bradford City Mela and BD Festival. “Although the project has grown through Bradford South Asian Festival and is rooted in South Asian heritage, it has never been about collecting only South Asian stories. “Every community Storywala visits adds something new to the archive while discovering stories gathered elsewhere.
