About the programme

We believe that Black women, Black LGBTQ+ and Black non-binary people are central to the future of the Black community.
​
​We've created this program to ensure that Black women and non-binary Black people are supported to build social community projects for the benefit of local Black communities in the UK.

The "How to be a Community Leader" Programme is for people that care about making a difference but have no clue how to do so effectively.

Participants will have access to a 12-week in-depth expert-led program that will support you in understanding the key tools and resources you need to start and build an impactful community.
