My personal message to the Conservative Friends of Bangladesh

‘Friends of’ groups provide our Party with magnificent support in a number of ways, from campaigning and
supporting our Councillors, MPs and candidates, to raising important issues and making sure that matters which
disproportionately affect communities are at the top of the Party’s agenda.

The CFOB held its annual gala fundraising dinner in Kensington on 17th July. The event was oversubscribed with nearly 300 members in attendance, the largest ever gathering in its 12-year history.

This week, St Albans MP Anne Main chaired the Conservative Friends of Bangladesh (CFoB) AGM in parliament.

Anne Main is MP for St Albans and is Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Bangladesh and the newly formed APPG on the Rights of the Rohingya. She is also President of the Conservative Friends of Bangladesh.

Conservative Friends of Bangladesh's Project Shapla gets underway in September 2017. Project Shapla will be the fourth Conservative Friends of Bangladesh (CFoB) trip to Bangladesh since the group’s formation in 2006.

It is a huge honour and pleasure to introduce the Conservatives Friends of Bangladesh (CFoB) ten-year anniversary celebration publication to commemorate our immense successes.

The Conservative Friends of Bangladesh (CFoB) will be hosting its 10 Year Anniversary Dinner in London on Monday 5th December 2016. The gala reception will be attended by Hon President Anne Main MP with 174 guests.

The Conservative Friends of Bangladesh hosted its fringe reception on Tuesday 4th October 2016 at party conference in Birmingham. 80 guests attended including H.E. Mr Khondkher M Talha, Acting Bangladesh High Commissioner, Conservative MEP Amjad Bashir and Robert Buckland MP.

CFOB echo’s the sentiments provided by the Prime Minister, David Cameron, and the wider public heartfelt tributes on the horrific incident and death of Jo Cox MP.
