Celebrating Success Together: A Remarkable Year Rounded at the Membership Network Event
We would like to thank everyone who attended our Membership Network Event on Thursday, 21 December where we wrapped up the successful 2023. We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming response and the enthusiastic participation of everyone involved. Your commitment and support have been essential in making this year truly extraordinary for YBF.
The highlight of the evening was the spotlight we cast on the inspiring work of One Flow One Brent (OFOB), a unique consortium that brings together the Young Brent Foundation, local youth, and major housing associations. OFOB is not just an initiative; it is a testament to the power of collaboration and community-driven solutions. Recognizing that violence is a localized issue, OFOB aims to empower communities to lead positive change.
We hosted representatives from the London Violence Reduction Unit and Housing Associations. Their insights into community-led initiatives were both enlightening and empowering. Attendees had the chance to engage directly with these key figures, gaining valuable knowledge and forming connections that will undoubtedly contribute to the collective efforts to create positive change.
A highlight of the evening was the presence of the youth board members, providing a firsthand account of the impactful work within the community. Their passion, dedication, and stories were truly inspiring, reminding us of the meaningful impact we can have when we come together with a common purpose.
The evening was not just a regular membership event; it was about celebrating the successes that defined our journey throughout the year.
We want to express our sincere gratitude to all our partners who supported us, collaborated on our initiative, and contributed to the extensive social work the borough of Brent needs. Your presence at the Membership Network event only confirmed our deep commitment to the cause and made it an unforgettable night of connection, collaboration, and community spirit. We would also like to thank Eszter Bán for providing us with her professional photography support throughout the night. With a bright outlook for the new year, we carry our ambitions and enthusiasm forward and continue working together to support the young people of Brent.
Here is to a successful year behind us and an even brighter future ahead. Thank you for being part of the YBF community.
Wishing you a prosperous 2024!
