Kensington BME

There’s been quite a bit of movement on the BME front in Kensington. The BME Strategy Group has finally got going properly, with a grant from Kensington Regeneration which will fund admin support and consultants (Barry and Alison Navarro) to get things moving forward. We have a chair and a vice chair now, David Derefeka and Madeleine Heneghan, both BME residents, one from Kensington and one from Fairfield. We have aims, an action plan and some real direction, so I am confident that we can build on the good work that Martin Pinder has been doing over the last 10 years, once Kensington Regeneration comes to an end next year. If you want details of the next BME strategy group meeting, let me know.
