Your Hosts:
Ade and Victoria Ogunsanya, Co-Founders of Black Marriage Network and co-hosts of the ‘Together Forever’ show on Przfm radio.
The aim of setting up this network is to provide a safe place for other married black couples to meet, share experiences, support each other and have fun. We aim to do this by organising at least four couples events a year. The events would vary and hope to be educational, fun and empowering. Ade and Victoria have been married 5 years and have three amazing children. “We set up this organisation as we wanted to join one like this but couldn’t find one”. They believe that there are other couples like them who would benefit from meeting new couples to form friendships with and are very excited that Black Marriage Network is finally here!!!
