What an incredible year 2025 has been for BRN!
As we wrap up and head into the festive season, we wanted to take a moment to reflect, celebrate, and most importantly, THANK YOU.

Thank you to our members for showing up, day after day, engaging with our content, sharing your insights, and most importantly, supporting one another. You don't just participate in this community, you ARE this community. Every conversation, every connection, every moment of encouragement has been the heartbeat of BRN.

To our speakers, thank you for stepping up to share your knowledge, experiences, and expertise. Your willingness to be vulnerable, to teach, and to inspire has sparked conversations that have opened doors for so many.

To our partners, thank you for believing in our mission and investing in a space where Black talent in recruitment can truly thrive. Your support has allowed us to dream bigger and reach further.

To everyone who attended an event this year - whether it was your first or your fifth - thank you for bringing your energy, your curiosity, and your purpose. You made every gathering meaningful, and every moment memorable.

And to our friends, supporters, and anyone who's followed along on this journey - whether you've liked a post, shared our content, or simply been watching from afar - thank you. Your quiet support means more than you know, and you're part of this story too.

As we sign off for the holidays, we're already looking ahead with excitement.
Next year, we celebrate 5 years of BRN, and we're planning to make it impactful. Expect new initiatives, more events, and even more opportunities to connect, learn, and grow together as we enter this milestone year. 🥳

As we look ahead to 2026, we're bringing someone on board to help us continue building meaningful connections and impact across our community.

We're looking for a Community Manager (approx. 5-8 hours per week) to oversee engagement across our channels - WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Slack, and our newsletter.

You don't need to be a recruiter or work in talent acquisition - just someone who's interested in the conversations we're having and keen to learn more about this space while helping foster genuine community connections. 🧡

Full details coming in the new year, but if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, feel free to reach out early.

As we close out 2025, we wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season filled with rest, joy, and connection. We'll be taking a well-deserved break and will be back in the new year - recharged and ready to make 2026 our best year yet.

See you in January!

With love & gratitude,
The BRN Team
