๐ŸŒ Breaking Barriers, Building Understanding! ๐ŸŒŸ

This week, our Ethnic Health Forum team โ€” staff and volunteers โ€” had the privilege of attending the Cultural and International Mental Health Conference 2025 at Manchester Museum , hosted by the The University of Manchester and the Manchester Global Foundation ๐ŸŒ

This yearโ€™s theme focused on culture, ethnicity, and forensic mental health โ€” exploring powerful research and inspiring conversations that challenge assumptions and drive real change in mental health practice. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿง 

A huge thank you to all the organisers and speakers for creating such a meaningful and thought-provoking event. ๐Ÿ‘ Weโ€™re already looking forward to next yearโ€™s conference! ๐Ÿ™Œ

๐ŸŒŸ South Asian Women = Big Impact! ๐ŸŒŸ

๐Ÿ’ฌ Passionate.
๐Ÿ’– Insightful.
๐Ÿค Friendly.
๐Ÿ’ก Full of ideas.

We were thrilled to welcome a wonderful group of South Asian women to the EHF office for a focus group with perinatal women, held in collaboration with the University of Liverpool.

Together, we explored ideas to help shape a new tool designed to support perinatal women from South Asian backgrounds. The discussion was passionate, emotional, and incredibly friendly โ€” even exceeding our expectations! So much valuable insight was shared, highlighting the unique perspectives these women bring to research.

At EHF, weโ€™re proud to champion Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE). This session highlighted just how vital South Asian womenโ€™s voices are in guiding meaningful, culturally informed research.

๐Ÿ’ A huge thank you to everyone who joined us โ€” your contributions are making a real difference.

We are excited to continue this important journey in our next session!

๐Ÿ’ช Women Leading the Change for Healthier Families! ๐Ÿ’ช
We were delighted to welcome a vibrant group of women to the EHF office; each willing to take on the role of 'community role model' to raise awareness about cancer within their families and communities. ๐ŸŒธ

During the session, we shared accurate information about cancer and screening programs available here in the UK, provided hands-on training, and encouraged each participant to pass this knowledge on to their loved ones back home.

The feedback was incredibly positive! ๐Ÿ’ฌ
Some participants even shared touching stories of three generations โ€” grandparents, parents, and children โ€” sitting together over dinner to discuss what cancer is and how early screening can save lives.

At Ethnic Health Forum, we believe in empowering women with knowledge that protects and uplifts their families. This initiative marks another meaningful step in our community engagement journey.

๐Ÿ‘ A big well done to all our amazing participants โ€” your efforts truly make a difference!
