`WAM` at first glance:-
The Malayalees in Weston Super Mare didn`t have a leadership and organisational set up until the year 2013. In October 6th, 2013 many of the Weston Malayalees assembled in Scout Hall and formed an association named as `WAM` with a constitution.
It is officially established in August 2014 with the celebration of our harvest festival `Onam`.
The then Hon. Lord Commissioner (HM Treasury) of U.K. Mr. John Penrose MP lit the flame of this great Organisation. H.E the Hon. President of India of that time Mr. Pranab Mukherjee and the then Hon. Chief Minister of Kerala Mr. Oommen Chandy were also greeted the occasion from India.
Since then, WAM serves to maintain its motto and implement it at its best level. The association strives to conduct various activities, it includes Sports Day, Cultural Programmes in order to maximise the physical and mental health and Social awareness seminars to maintain well educated generation.
