We are a non-profit organisation (ASBL) who raises money for various good causes. Each year we decide on two charities usually one from Great Britain and another one from Luxembourg. We raise money from our membership fees, advertisers, various events and activities held throughout the year as well as our famous Car Boot Sale held usually in May. Please see our Marketing & PR page for more details on our work in and around Luxembourg, as well as how the BLC started.

Young Minds, UK
Monies donated : €
We’re fighting for a world where no young person feels alone with their mental heath. The sheer scale of the problem we’re faced with can feel overwhelming. More young people than ever before need support for their mental health and accessing that support quickly can make a critical difference. We have called our strategy ‘You Matter’ because, ultimately, that is what this is all about. We need young people to know that whatever they are going through, they matter and they deserve help, which they should get when they need it, no matter what.
Corrigendum Correction from the November newsletter: our UK charity for the current year is Young Minds UK.
Think Pink, Luxembourg
Monies donated : €
Think Pink Lux is a Luxembourg registered ASBL formed in 2009 by a small group of volunteers whose lives have been touched by cancer either directly or through their families and friends. “When a person is diagnosed with cancer the impact ripples outwards affecting family, friends, employers, colleagues and acquaintances,” says Carrie Cannon, a board member. The purpose of the organisation is to help women living in Luxembourg with the day to day reality of cancer through support groups and resources, fundraising events, and the support of research.
