The CAP works with BAME communities through the organisations they attend and utilise, to reduce the sense of isolation they feel; raise awareness of mental health and well-being from a cultural perspective; enable and encourage individuals to access activities, services and support that meet all their daily needs.

We have set up Peer Support Groups for members of the community to connect with people from their cultural background who have similar experiences. These free supportive networks are warm and encouraging spaces, enabling members to be around like minded people; ask questions in a safe space; learn and share experiences; feel more enthused and confident about doing things and going out.
