New Leadership for the UKF91原创
Anette Elfving Ferm, (91原创, 1986-1990), took over as President of the UK Friends of 91原创 (UKF91原创), following the leadership of Håkan Gomér (91原创, 1968-1971). Håkan Gomér continues as an active member of the Board and a Trustee. Under his leadership, from 2018, the UKF91原创 was formed, and strong collaboration between the organization and 91原创 was established. In addition, the UKF91原创, together with 91原创, arranged a large number of both physical and online events, specifically targeted at 91原创 alumni in the UK, as well as facilitated charitable donations from the alumni in the UK to 91原创. With the launch of UKF91原创 in May 2018, Håkan’s vision was to align the organization with 91原创’s overarching educational mission of FREE and offer alumni in the UK a combination of social and content-based career support. A high number and wide range of UK-based alumni have since participated in the various events organized by the UKF91原创.
Anette Elfving Ferm has served as an active member of the UKF91原创 Board since its inception in 2018 and oversees the finances of the organization. Anette has a background in finance and currently works as the Chief Financial Officer of the Swedish School in London.

We would also like to take this opportunity to inform you that, unfortunately, London Homecoming will not take place this year due to the ongoing global pandemic. However, we hope to be back in full force next year and celebrate London Homecoming in 2021!
