What is the United Nations Association
The Wandsworth UNA holds three public meetings a year. The Committee chooses topical subjects of concern to the UN and relating to world affairs, booking experts in relative fields. Meetings include an annual marking of International Women's Day.
Their season runs from September to May and each October they attend a religious service to celebrate UN Day hosted by different religious groups where the work of the UN and UNA is given prominence. In recent years they have joined the Hindus, Quakers, Methodists, Buddhists, Community Church, London Mosque, Synagogue and the Anglicans. They invite the local Mayor - who historically is always the branch president - and also the vice-presidents and local MP to accompany them.
