Born on 23rd June 1974, the Young Lohana Association of North
London was the first ever independent Lohana Youth Body and it
has gone from strength to strength since it's conception.
Although the Association is now affiliated to its parent body (LCNL),
it has its own constitution and holds elections annually. The
Young Lohana Association of North London was resurrected in 2006
since its gradual demise and has been progressing tremendously
in the last 3 years. The Executive committee consists of
President, Vice President, Immediate Past President, Secretary,
Treasurer, Social Secretary and Membership Secretary.
The Committee takes responsibility for ensuring that the
Association's aims and objectives are fulfilled within the
regulatory framework of the constitution itself. Despite the
fact that the Association caters primarily for the youth of
North London the extent of its activities is greater and
broader.
The Association encourages its members to participate in the
events and activities of the Lohana Community more broadly and
members of the committee have taken an active part in events
organised by the LCNL and LCUK. The Committee is favoured with
considerable respect and support from both these organisations.
The YLANL's many activities include social functions, sporting
events and diverse activities like the L Factor, talent show. L
factor has been the YLANL’s main annual event, since the
formation of the show in 2007. YLANL believe that the talent in
the youth should be expressed and what better way for the youth
to showcase their talent than providing them with a platform to
showcase their skills. Through proceeds raised from L factor,
the YLANL have also been contributing to various charities in
the last few years.
YLANL also hosts a monthly Kidz Klub filled with not only fun
and games, but also arts and crafts. Every month, the Kidz Klub
is structured to incorporate various dates in the social
calendar and also includes lots of fun for the kids.
Traditionally, our biggest Kids Klub events are Navratri and
Christmas where we aim to provide the children with an
understanding of the various festivals and also ensure that the
kids are engaging in sports and games to encourage their
interaction with other children.
Membership of the Association is open to individuals between the
age of 16-35 and is free The Association by its very nature
evolves from year to year with the ideas and insight of new
committee members. Elections are held at the beginning of spring
each year and with the elections comes a fresh burst of energy,
talent and inspiration. It is this ability that has transformed
the Association from a sub-committee into an independent
organisation.
