RT Meeting at Serbian Church in London – Sat, 19th March

The next RT meeting will take place on Saturday 19 March 2016 at the Bishop Nikolaj Community Centre in London. The meeting will start from 14.00pm and is expected to finish at about 16.30pm. 

All Serbian organisations are invited to attend the meeting. Please send us the names and contact details for your representatives and active members through contacting the Round Table Steering Group (RTSG).

The aim of the Round Table is to encourage cooperation and collaboration between Serbian community groups and organisations from across the UK and Northern Ireland (UK&NI) for the benefit of the Serbian community in UK&NI. It also provides a forum for Serbian community organisations to discuss issues of interest and importance to the Serbian community in the UK&NI and to agree ways forward.

To date the Round Table Initiative has supported projects such as the Serbian Language Course, Election of the UK&NI Representatives to Diaspora Assembly in Serbia and Serbian Month. These proved to be excellent examples of successful collaboration amongst a number of Serbian Community organisations in the UK.

On this occasion, the RT Meeting will be particularly looking to address the following agenda items:

        1. Introduction of the newly elected UK&NI Representatives

        2. Continuation of the planning process for the Diaspora Conference in the UK

We hope the enclosed Agenda for the next RT Meeting provides the opportunity for this to take place.  If you have further questions for the RTSG or wish to make any comments or suggestions, please reply to this email or contact us on 07939262107.
