A Perspective on Genetic Health
Join us for an important and informative seminar taking place on Friday 27th March from 10am to 1pm at Hat House, 32 Guildford Street, Luton, LU1 2NR.
This free event invites women to come together for a meaningful discussion about genetic health, family wellbeing, and the importance of understanding how certain health conditions can be passed through generations.
Understanding your genes can be a powerful step towards giving your children and grandchildren the healthiest possible start in life. This seminar will explore how inherited conditions such as Sickle Cell, Thalassemia, Dementia, and other genetic conditions may be linked to our DNA, while helping attendees better understand the role genetics can play in family health and future planning.
The event will be hosted by Valma James, Author and Radio Presenter at Bedfordshire Health Radio, with guest speaker

In Memory of Jesse Jackson
A Voice for Justice. A Legacy of Courage.
We honor the life and legacy of Jesse Jackson, a powerful advocate who consistently spoke out against social injustice and inequality.
Throughout his life, he stood as a beacon of hope, using his voice to challenge discrimination, uplift communities, and champion equal rights for all. His dedication to fairness and unity inspired generations and reminded us that change begins when someone is brave enough to speak.
An amazing role model whose message of justice and equality will continue to resonate for years to come.
