Our MissionWe are committed to promoting positive steps to mental well-being within Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) communities in RBKC.

Our Vision

People from BME communities with mental health issues will:

• Receive more appropriate support
• Have a better understanding of mental health and positive steps to well being
• Be equipped with skills to make more informed observations about behaviours that could suggest possible mental health problems

Our Objectives

• To address mental health issues, primarily within the BME communities across RBKC, that would lead to earlier treatment
• To develop sustainable awareness campaigns around mental illness within BME communities by working with individuals, community groups and statutory services
• To ensure active participation of BME groups in the consultation and implementation of mental health policy through re-establishment of the BME Local Implementation Team (BME LIT)
• To ensure all information and approaches are adopted by the statutory services and that links between the statutory and community voluntary organisations are developed and strengthened

Our Values

We believe in:

• Equality
• Respect
• Knowledge
• Integrity
• Honesty
• Loyalty
