Our story

TADA was formed by sons and daughters of Talla who wanted a single, trusted forum for the village — a place where culture, learning and development could be planned together. From small gatherings under the village tree, it has grown into an active association with members at home and abroad.

Our vision

A Talla that is proud of its heritage, equipped with modern opportunity, and united in working for the wellbeing of every household.

Our mission

To preserve and celebrate the culture of Talla; to advance education, health and livelihoods; and to mobilise the village around projects that no single household could deliver alone.

Leadership

Volunteers elected by the membership to steward TADA's work. Names and photos will be updated.
