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.

Upcoming Events

The Committee and Members of HACAS are sad to hear of the passing Christopher Johnson. We send our deepest sympathy to Wife Ethel and family with our regret that we are not able to gather personally to support them at this time because of lockdown.
Chris was a valued member especially of our Friday Luncheon Club. He never missed unless there was a clash with family or Hospital appointments. Fellow members appreciated his no nonsense, calm good sense as well as his dry humour. The dominoes posse will not be the same without him.

So long Chris RIP

The Luncheon Club is currently suspended due to COVID-19

Friday Club

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.

Dance School

The HACAS Dance School was established in 2002 and offers children and young people in the community, the opportunity to learn dance, mainly street but also other popular dance forms, to have fun and make friends.

Mentoring

The aims of the Mentoring project are to raise aspirations, increase confidence and academic achievement. We primarily work with black boys aged 11-16 irrespective of academic, social & economic background.
