Our Focus

We work primarily with African-Caribbean men and women in Birmingham with lived experience of mental health to provide leadership development, social activities and easy access to a range of community-based services

Easy Access

Over coming months we are developing a collaborative initiative to provide easy access and referral to a range of culturally appropriate local services.

Social

We are pleased to announce the Meet & Eat sessions return in July 2025. The sessions are a place to relax, build friendships, and a space for sharing and support. 

Leadership

 A new development support programme that builds the abilities and confidence to develop and effectively manage user-led community organisations.
