Last Sunday, Brent Hubs was present at the Women’s Health event for Portuguese speakers. Together with the Public Health team and the Community Engagement Team, engaged with the Portuguese speakers community focusing on presenting our services to them. The event was held at Harlesden library where we had many speakers educating us about woman’s health and the support available. We also had delicious Brazilian food and samba!Brent Museum and Archives are running an Autism Awareness morning for families with children 3-15 years old with autism.

Families from Kilburn celebrated the official opening of Brent Hubs Kilburn at a fun event for the whole family on Saturday 13 July. Residents were able to meet the Brent Hubs Team and other local organisations to find out what support is available for them, and how they can access it locally. There was entertainment for all including celebrity DJ and MC Rodney P, face painting, bingo raffle and lots of yummy food from across the world. Brent Hubs Kilburn is the second hub to open following the success of the original Brent Hubs Harlesden which was launched as a pilot in March 2017. The next hubs will be rolled out in a phased approach over the next two years, and will be based in Willesden, Wembley and Kingsbury. A big thank you to the local community for coming out and supporting this event which will hopefully be the start of many more to come! |
