Welcome

The organisation was formed to Advise, Support, Advocate and Represent organisations and individuals within the African community.

Sporting activities, summer barbecues and get togethers, attending local council meetings and public events, language courses e.g. Swahili, assisting at food banks, allotment digging, African drumming and dancing
