About Us

The Dominica Association was set up in 1979 after Hurricane David in Dominica. A few Dominicans living in Bradford got together to raise money towards relief. They continued to do so for several months and as the word spread, many more Dominicans got on board to assist.

Originally based at Hallfield Road, the move to Worthington Street became necessary as its membership grew. The Association continued to develop and provide cultural, social and educational facilities for Dominicans and the wider community.

The Association in legal terms is a constituted unincorporated association and is run by a management committee made up of 8 members and a centre manager. We have 2 Holding Trustees who are responsible for the property, major assets, and support high value financial decisions. We also have 1 membership appointed Trustee and regular volunteers who provide assistance with various Association activities.

Current services Include a Senior Day Opportunities Group which runs on Wednesdays and Thursdays and has an attendance of approximately 20 users.
