The Kerala Cultural and Welfare Association (KCWA), established in 1975, is a registered charity and voluntary community organisation based in Croydon, UK. Founded with the vision of uniting and uplifting the Malayalee community, KCWA has grown into a thriving association with a membership of over 10,000 individuals in and around Croydon.

KCWA's core mission is to promote the cultural, academic, artistic, and welfare interests of the Kerala community. The organisation runs a wide range of weekly activities for both children and adults, including dance, music, sports, and educational support. These initiatives offer valuable opportunities for skill development, community involvement, and cultural expression.

The association’s well-regarded dance program has achieved national recognition, showcasing the talent of its students and the dedication of teachers, parents, and volunteers. KCWA’s success is deeply rooted in collective community effort and voluntary service.

In addition to cultural initiatives, KCWA is committed to fostering social unity and working collaboratively with other communities in the borough and beyond. The organisation strongly believes in the power of social and cultural cohesion to strengthen a diverse society, and actively works toward promoting mutual respect and shared growth.

KCWA welcomes new members and encourages active participation in its many events and programs. For those interested in joining or learning more about its work, full details can be found on the official KCWA website.
