developing a project to provide a programme of constructive recreational, educational and vocational support for Bangladeshi and Asian young people
(age 13-19) that will help address the problems of anti-social behaviour and drug abuse. |

for seven years this project provides additional support in school and the
opportunity for out of school hours learning. The main objectives
are to provide academic and pastoral assistance to Bangladeshi
and Asian children in different schools and to enable parents to
provide the support and motivation required to enable children to
achieve their potential. |

Members of
the Bangladeshi community founded Bangladesh Community Development, (BCD)
in 1994 to address the difficulties encountered by British-Bangladeshis
in Birmingham. BCD supports the Bangladesh community by running projects
that offer educational support to students of all ages; raise
educational awareness among Bangladeshi and other Asian parents; provide the
opportunity for Bangladeshi children to learn their mother tongue, and
provide unemployed Bangladeshis with vocational and employment related training courses and
career development courses. These courses, run by BCD, provide Bengali's with the confidence to integrate
and progress in all areas of their lives.
BCD would like to develop football in the community, which undoubtedly has great potential.
BCD and S.T.F.C. endeavour to encourage more Asians into football as well as tackling the
shortage of Asian professional players.
