Black Minds Matter - Jazz FM Voices

Black Minds Matter UK founded one year ago against the backdrop of the global pandemic and the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement which shone a light on the necessity for adequate mental health support for the Black Community in the UK.

One year on they have managed to fundraise for over 1500 , 12 week courses of free therapy for Black people in the UK and are working hard to ensure they can continue to create a lasting impact on Black mental health.
