We are the Hope and Light programme, providing mental health support to the Black African, Black Caribbean, Central and Eastern European, and South Asian communities recognising the diversity within and beyond these groups through a range of culturally responsive services.

We put you at the heart of what we do. By listening to your experiences and respecting your values, we aim to address mental health challenges in ways that you can relate to and meet your unique needs. We’re here to find ways to address mental health challenges that respect your culture, value your input, and are designed specifically with your needs in mind.

Through activities such as group and one to one support, we create safe spaces in your community to help you access the right care.
