We are excited to invite you to the launch of SwissCommunity UK, a new organisation picking up the baton from FOSSUK, which aims to - with your input - support the evolving needs of the Swiss community in the UK for years to come.

At this first SwissCommunity UK Day, you will have the opportunity to hear more about the draft constitution and share your thoughts and feedback. We also warmly invite anyone interested to join the new Committee of this nascent organisation.

You will have the chance to hear from and share your concerns and questions with very senior representatives from the Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (Mr Laurent Perriard and Mr Michel Malizia) and the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad (President Mr Filippo Lombardi, with an online appearance from the new Director Mr Daniel Hunziker).

You will also hear from Loredana Guetg-Wyatt and Kaelynn Narita from the3million, an organisation that is campaigning for the rights of EU and EEA citizens in the UK.

We are delighted that the inimitable Swiss artist and musician Nat Cartier (Swiss Artist in Residence in 2024) will perform for us. And we will end the afternoon with an aperitif, generously offered by HE Ambassador Dominique Paravicini.

For those who want to continue mingling with new and old friends, we are also organising a dinner at the mythical Swiss restaurant St Moritz in Soho.
