‘Making Time for Black Mental Health’ community event

Think Tenacity’s upcoming event will be a fantastic opportunity for us to connect with the local community and discuss the importance of mental health support and awareness in the black community.

The event will include participation from residents, service users, and mental health practitioners. This free event will take place in Nando’s Kensal Rise on Monday 1 December from 3:45pm – 6:30pm. It will also include both vegan and vegetarian options.

Delegates will enjoy a Q&A panel of Black therapists led by Dr Kenisha Jackson sharing self-care tips for the Christmas season and why hospital detention rates are higher for Black marginalised communities.
