As the chair of TUVAA and I am thrilled to invite you to our Black Business Art and Music (BBAM) Festival fundraising Gala Night on Sunday 20th July!
This year marks a significant milestone as we celebrate the success of our talented artists and businesses who have shown remarkable growth and confidence.
Over the past three years, BBAM has provided a platform for black talents to become more visible and shine, empowering them to take risks and thrive. I am proud of the progress we have made together in promoting black cultures enhancing the city’s diverse cultural celebrations. We are excited to share this journey with you!
By attending the BBAM Gala, you will not only be celebrating our successes but also contributing to the growth of our community and the city’s diverse cultural celebrations.

African women and known for being non-swimmers. TUVAA is determined to address that. Our swimming coordinator encouraged as many women as possible to join her in the pool. Over 100 ladies had a plunge into the water since it started. Many of these days are swimmers now. With your support we will have more women to be water confident.
