BPF Southwark

The SBPF SANKOFA event on Saturday 28th February from 11.30am.

Bringing together the work delivered to Southwark and much more to come.

Exploring our Forums, Akwasidae Festival, exhibitions and health initiatives!

MVML Panel Discussion: Health, Wellbeing & Community Impact

Join David Reid, Gay Palmer, Fowsiya Waeys, and Reema Reid for an insightful panel discussion exploring health and wellbeing within our community, and the transformative impact of funding in expanding this vital work.

This powerful conversation will highlight how strategic support and investment have enabled SBPF to deliver far more than a course. Through collaborative partnerships and community-led initiatives, funding has helped create sustainable programmes that promote healthier lifestyles, tackle health inequalities, and empower families with knowledge and practical tools.

Our panel will share real experiences, key learnings, and reflections on how access to resources has opened doors. Allowing SBPF to move beyond short-term interventions and toward long-term change and improved quality of life.

Come and engage in a meaningful discussion about progress, possibilities, and the collective effort needed to build healthier, stronger communities.

3 years of impact. 3 years of community. 3 years of SBPF. 🎉
