19 Golborne Road North Kensington London W10 5NY T (0)20 8968 4499 F (0)20 8968 3969 [email protected]   PROJECTS & ACTIVITIES       Police and MyGeneration Community Cup Event This is a yearly competition run in partnership with Kensington and Chelsea Police. This event is designed to be a fun day with a serious anti-crime message. It acts as one of our community cohesion days in which we seek to bring together all the different groups that make up our community so they interact with the police in an entirely positive manner. The whole event is to break down the suspicion between the police and minority communities. Family Fun Day This is a large event where we celebrate the family and incorporate sport through organised activities. There is a carnival atmosphere which promotes celebration and interaction of the community. As well as a five-a-side football tournament, we offer tasty food, live music, games, a bouncy castle and face painting. Both of these events are used to push our lifestyle agenda of good diet, education, community and personal safety. Who are our Stakeholders and What is our Timing? Firstly it is society as a whole, and families rich and poor. The world is so linked today. We must all take responsibility, both long- and short- term. Society�s current problems took years to create and it will take years, and generations, to achieve significant change and progress. However, there are plenty of short-term, tactical efforts that can have an immediate impact and lead to sustainable change. We will look to identify and implement such programs in the short-term, while always working toward the longterm goal of building self-supporting, sustainable, and effective communities from within. Shaun Bailey, co-founder of the charity, comments: ‘It is clear that the strongest groups in society are those who do not live a deprived dependant life managed by outside forces.’ ‘MyGeneration’s existence is a practical expression of our intention to help build a sense of positive community which is lacking in some parts of our society. It is incredibly hard to make a difference in somebody’s life and it takes time and dedication. This is why we should empower people to develop the skills for their families because there is a benefit for them because when you advocate for your children, you are fulfilling your role as a parent and this greatly lifts your self esteem.’ PROJECTS & ACTIVITIES ANNUAL EVENTS MISSION STATEMENT We aim to mentor potential community leaders to inspire young people to lead more socially responsible lives and to open up a life of opportunity through specific empowerment projects. Drawing on our networks of local and national heroes and role models, we seek to roll out our membership to harness the energy and talent of young people throughout the UK.
