Who We Are...

The Harrow African-Caribbean Association (HACAS) is a voluntary community organisation formed in 1991 to bring together the African-Caribbean people, who live in Harrow.

Through our motto 'Unity is Strength' we aim to promote the well-being and interest of our members; provide them with a meeting place; support individuals including the youth and elderly; take up their concerns with statutory bodies such as Local and Central Government in respect of Health, Education, Employment and Training; provide leisure and cultural activities for members and the wider community.

We are pleased to announce that in September 2018, HACAS has been successful in being awarded a grant from the National Lottery Awards For All. This grant will go a long way in assisting HACAS with the day-to-day running of its activities. Also, with the help of this grant, we will be expanding the Keep Fit Classes with an additional Salsa Class, which will take place at the same venue – The Methodist Church Hall, Locket Road, Wealdstone HA3 7ND at 11:00am, to provide additional “Well Being” in the community

Our Friday Club ensures that retired and elderly members have a place to meet; enjoy good African-Caribbean cuisine, keep fit, leisure activities including day trips and excursions and contribute to cultural and social events.
