What a brilliant UKON Annual Winter Celebration at @john_smith_house . Not only did we celebrate alongside our John Smith House partners, but we also came together for our joyful annual community winter celebration to recognise achievements across our community.

It was wonderful to celebrate the personal achievements of our children, young people and families through UKON Careers while enjoying the energy and support of our partners and wider community.

Huge thanks to Barking and Dagenham Youth Dance for the high-energy dance sessions, to The Village for bringing culture to life through storytelling and to our fantastic John Smith House Young Health Ambassadors who supported the set-up and delivery of the event. A special thank you to Future MOLDS Communities for your continued support and encouragement throughout the year.

The winter craft workshops were buzzing, and the steelpan sessions led by The Steel Pan Agency truly brought the festive community spirit to life

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day such a success. The energy, joy, and togetherness were truly unforgettable
