‘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.
