Teddy Hall is pleased to welcome Jacqui Gitau, co-founder and co-director of AFiUK (African Families in the UK), Jacqui Gitau is a parenting strategist and activist passionate about family wellbeing, particularly the migrant family. Jacqui holds a first degree in Community Family Development and a Masters degree in Childhood Studies.

AFiUK (African Families in the UK) is an organisation set up to serve the interests of African and other ethnic minority families where the parents were born and educated overseas, while their children have been born in the UK, often creating a clash of cultural identities for all concerned. AFiUK supports a local youth club, homework and tutoring schemes, maternity support groups, and cultural mixing events such as culinary sharing and cross-cultural parenting training with the aim of empowering African families in the Oxford community.

You can find out more about Jacqui and the work of AFiUK – and its relevance for the university and city of Oxford – next Thursday 2 November at 17:30 in the Doctorow Hall. No booking needed, all welcome.
