A Fantastic Afternoon at Our Networking Mixer

On 14 January 2024, the Kenyan Community in Scotland hosted a memorable Networking Mixer at The Foot of The Walk - JD Wetherspoon in Edinburgh. The afternoon was filled with energy, laughter, and meaningful conversations, bringing together a vibrant group of Kenyan professionals and friends.

A huge thank you to everyone who made time to attend. It was heartwarming to see so many familiar faces and meet new members of our growing community. The positive atmosphere reflected the strength and unity of Kenyans living in Scotland.

Event Highlights

  • Lively Networking Sessions: Attendees engaged in dynamic discussions, exchanging ideas, career experiences, and professional insights across diverse industries including healthcare, IT, education, business, and the arts.
  • Sharing Life in Edinburgh: Many shared personal journeys about settling and thriving in Edinburgh, offering invaluable advice to newcomers.
  • Strengthening Community Bonds: Friendships were rekindled and new relationships were formed, reinforcing the importance of staying connected and supporting each other.
  • Youth and Family Engagement: It was also wonderful to see younger members of the community present, adding to the joyful and inclusive spirit of the day.

A Special Thanks

Our heartfelt appreciation goes to our venue, The Foot of The Walk - JD Wetherspoon, for providing a welcoming, comfortable, and relaxed environment. The excellent service and cozy setting contributed immensely to the success of the event.

Reflections and Next Steps

This mixer was more than just an event; it was a reminder of the strength that lies in community. It highlighted our shared experiences, our aspirations, and the endless possibilities that collaboration brings.

We are excited about the future and are already planning more events to continue building a strong, supportive, and thriving Kenyan community network in Scotland.

Stay tuned for announcements on upcoming workshops, social events, and mentorship programs. Together, we are building a brighter future!
