BCO NextGen 2024 End of Term Report! After the peak for the Annual BCO NextGen Awards it’s time to look back at the amazing work the 2024 British Council for Offices NextGen London and South East Committee has done! We end the year on 810 London and South East NextGen members (1,125 nationally)! There have been 7 brilliant building tours with 215 attendees. We’ve put on “Lets Talk about…” events covering AI, Social Value, and Culture, throughout the year for over 200 NextGeners. 4 yoga sessions, monthly running routes, and weekly cycle laps (plus our epic kit) have cemented our wellness programme. We had a Mentoring Garden Party and a Summer social for over 100 members. We’ve collaborated with the LPA on two events with over 120 attendees from both organisations. The conference saw our biggest NG attendance ever, and a great collaboration between the London and BCO NextGen Midlands committees in the organisation; catering for 180 NG attendees, 15 young cyclists riding from Newcastle to Birmingham, a brunch for 35, 60 mentors and mentees, a walking tour for 40, 2 NG run seminars, and a party for 250 people! The Ideas Competition Showcase with our 6 finalists pitching their ideas to a packed audience, showed off the best and brightest in our sector. Our Awards night saw our new trophies find homes with our Rising Stars at the German Gymnasium with over 200 in attendance. It’s been a pleasure to be the London and South-East Chair, and I look forward to helping the BCO NextGen evolve further over the few next years (more on that to follow).
