The Association was founded in January 1998 and was set up to promote a range of social, charitable, educational, and cultural activities with the aim of bringing together the extended family and friends.
One of the main aims of the Association is to embrace the views, attitudes and aspiration of second generation Barbadians living in Birmingham. It also has a specific brief to take into account the interests and general development of their children, by creating a platform where their voices could be heard.
We firmly believe that 2nd Generation of Barbadians and Friends Association fully encapsulates the richness and diversity of our existing community without weakening our aims and objectives. It is this wider community spirit that has given us the new impetus to pursue our goals – as well as interacting with other local groups.
We are affiliated to the National Council of Barbadian Associations (NCBA) UK.
