This conference will bring together mental health professionals, community leaders, educators, NHS representatives, police, housing sector experts, and members of the Black community to examine the systemic issues affecting wellbeing and access to care.Whether you work in healthcare, education, policing, housing, or grassroots community support, this conference will provide insights, inspiration, and strategies to help prioritise mental health and reduce stigma within Black communities.The conference theme, ‘The Black Man’s Burden,’ draws on both historical roots and contemporary relevance. It takes its inspiration from Reverend Henry Johnson’s powerful response to Rudyard Kipling’s ‘The White Man’s Burden,’ highlighting the ongoing legacy of colonialism, systemic injustice, and racial oppression.While the title specifically references Black men, it is intended as a general statement reflecting the shared experiences and challenges faced by both Black men and women. These forces continue to impose distinct challenges on Black communities, profoundly impacting their mental health. Our aim is to unpack this burden, explore its origins, and foster critical discussions around healing, resilience, and systemic change.We are honoured to welcome Dr Leroy Logan, MBE, who will deliver a keynote address.Conference Schedule:Registration and Coffee: 9:30 AMConference Start: 10:00 AMConference Ends: 3:30 PMWho will we hear from:Audrey James: Psychotherapist and HostLeroy Logan MBE: Former Superintendent in the Metropolitan policeCharles Brown: Psychoanalytical PsychotheraphistDamel Carayol: Artist , Poet and MusicianWhat to Expect:Keynote presentations from expert speakersInteractive Q&amp;A sessions to engage directly with thought leadersPanel discussions exploring mental health across social institutionsNetworking opportunities with professionals and community advocatesWhat else do I need to know?There is plenty of free parking available on-site at Kingsholm Stadium for your convenience.Notice of ConsentBy registering for a ticket, you opt into the BSWN newsletter and give permission to be contacted regarding our future programme of events, programmes and opportunities.
