Black Thrive Global

We exist to change the odds stacked against Black people by embedding race equity into systemic change so that thriving is not the exception but the norm.

✨ We’re launching Scaling Systems Change!

This five-year programme, supported by £5 million from The National Lottery Community Fund (@TNLComFund), will tackle systemic racism and transform systems with and for Black communities across Lambeth, Haringey, Birmingham and nationally.

💡 Together, we’ll build sustainable change.
🙏 Thanks to National Lottery players for making this possible.

Institutions often seek Black expertise. Too rarely do they invest in Black organisations.

Our latest article explores epistemic vampirisation, tokenism and the systemic hollowing out of Black-led organisations.

For many Black women, financial pressure carries a hidden mental health cost — from stress and burnout to anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and the weight of navigating systemic inequalities.

Join us for “The Hidden Mental Health Costs of the Financial Crisis for Black Women” — a powerful conversation exploring these realities and creating space for reflection, connection, and collective healing.

🗓 Thursday 4 June 2026
📍 Karibu Education Centre, London
🎟 Free tickets: https://t.co/Bau8HZh1mj

This is more than a discussion. It’s about naming what’s often left unspoken and centring Black women’s wellbeing in the fight for financial justice.

Tag someone who needs to be part of this conversation 💚

For Black communities, mental health is deeply connected to belonging, safety and being seen.

This Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re reflecting on what it means to create spaces where Black people can not just survive, but thrive.

Because mental health is more than individual wellbeing — it’s collective liberation.

Black Thrive was at the Black Health Inequalities Summit last week — connecting with organisations and people who are all working to shift the reality of health inequalities facing Black communities.

It was a space for honest conversations, shared experiences, and real thinking about what needs to change. From mental health to access to care and everything in between.

Good to be in the room with others who are pushing for the same thing: better, fairer health outcomes for our communities.

Culture of Care has officially come to a close 🎉

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who contributed to this journey. What began as a programme has grown into a shared commitment to embedding care, equity, and reflection across our work 💛

Over the past months, we’ve created space for learning, honest conversations, and collective growth, all rooted in our mission to support better mental health outcomes for Black communities.
We marked the programme’s completion in March with a celebration, bringing people together as the community we’ve built along the way ❤️

The programme may have ended, but the work, and the culture of care, continues.

Angel Town was full of Easter cheer on 4 April as families came together for the return of our Easter Egg Giveaway.

Children enjoyed Easter eggs, smiles, and a fun afternoon in a safe, welcoming community space, while neighbours connected and shared in the spirit of the season. Events like this are all about bringing people together and creating moments of joy right here in the heart of the community.

A big thank you to everyone who came along and helped make the day such a positive one 💛

Happy Easter from all of us at Black Thrive Global 🧡

Racial harm in policing is not accidental. It is organised, repeated, and protected.

A new report, 30 Patterns of Harm, exposes how institutional racism within the Metropolitan Police is sustained through systems and weak accountability.
