What a way to start the month!!

This year's Launch will go down in history as one of the best BHM Launches we have ever had in Norfolk!

The day started with an African Market inside the Forum accompanied by live music on a specially errected stage outside. There was a constant flow of customers and general passers-by throughout the day. My personal highlight was seeing an elderly lady (surely in her 70's or 80's) whining her hips to the sound of NXT Generation Steel Band!! It was as if Notting Hill Carnival had come to Norfolk!

The Launch continued into the evening with a function inside the Forum. We were treated to more live music, inspirational speeches and some amazing Caribbean food.

Thank you to everyone who attended and especially the staff at the Forum for helping us launch BHM 07 with a BANG!
