Established in 2008 "we are one", was created to engage in events and activities that encourage cohesion, not just in race but in religion age class and political persuasion.
We believe that Community cohesion is about ensuring different groups of people share a common vision and sense of belonging, where similar life opportunities are available to all. It is defined as working towards a society in which there is a common vision and sense of belonging by all communities; a society in which the diversity of people’s backgrounds and circumstances is appreciated and valued; a society in which similar life opportunities are available to all; and a society in which strong and positive relationships exist and continue to be developed in the workplace, in schools and in the wider community.
Current activities include:
Africa V Asia UK comedy tour
Our most current endeavour is the "Africa vs Asia" comedy clash event which will feature top notch comedians all of whom hail from or have root in either continent (or even both in some cases) this comedy tour will take place across the UK in several cities we have strategically chosen, on the line up we have Muslims, Christians and a Hindu performing.
These comedians are all popular within their own communities and mainstream. They were carefully chosen as they have diverse fan bases of different ages, we feel having an audience so diverse makes us a formidable tool for cohesion.
Youth Activities
The main aim of our youth based activities is to provide positive programmes in an attempt to reduce & prevent participation in extremism, Gang culture, Gun & Knife Crime.
Our activities are focused on youth between the ages of 11 and 19 and range from, drama productions and camping trips to cooking and herbal healing workshops.
All workshops are run by specialists in their respective fields.
