As a Black-led community mental health and wellbeing organisation, we champion racial health equity across England by delivering compassionate support in maternal care, young parenthood, mental health, men’s wellbeing, and care leaver transitions, while strengthening a more equitable health workforce.
We are a collective of health professionals, researchers, and community leaders committed to closing the racial health gap. We believe wellbeing begins with belonging — every Black family deserves access to care, support, and opportunities to flourish.
Combining frontline experience, research, and lived expertise, we co-produce programmes that nurture wellbeing, strengthen families, and build fairer systems of care.
A future where Black families and communities thrive in mind, body, and spirit.
To bridge health inequities through community-led care, cultural connection, and compassion; empowering people to take root and grow.
Flourishing Horizons CIC was founded by two black female leaders whose professional and personal journeys are rooted in resilience, compassion, and community empowerment. Together they launched Roots to Wellness, a national programme offering support, education, and advocacy for Black families across England.
We bring together lived experience and academic rigour to create change that matters. Through the Black Health Equity Index and doctoral research led by our co-founder, we’re shaping evidence-based models of community wellbeing and inclusive care.
Our approach is grounded in the bio-psychosocial model, which recognises that wellbeing is shaped by biological, psychological, and social factors.
Our work is built on the belief that wellbeing begins with belonging. Every Black family deserves access to care, connection, and opportunities to thrive — free from the barriers of inequity and exclusion.
Our Community Health & Wellness Hub is a safe and welcoming space where Black families can access mental health support, holistic care, and community connection. Through culturally grounded counselling, wellbeing workshops, and peer groups, we nurture mind, body, and spirit. The Hub also serves as a learning space — blending lived experience with research to shape more inclusive and equitable models of care.
Empowering Black mothers, birthing people, and families through coaching, peer mentoring, parenting circles, and emotional wellbeing sessions. We provide culturally sensitive advocacy and guidance during pregnancy and early parenthood — helping families build confidence, connection, and access trusted support networks.
A safe, empowering space for young and teenage parents to grow, learn, and thrive. Our programme offers life-skills training, education and career pathways, childcare guidance, and peer group support designed to nurture resilience and opportunity.
Supporting Black men to prioritise mental health, family, and identity. Through men’s circles, coaching, mentoring, and fatherhood workshops, we create positive spaces to talk, heal, and reconnect — promoting strength, balance, and emotional wellbeing.
Designed for young people transitioning out of care, this pathway provides peer mentoring, career and skills development, and confidence building activities. We focus on empowerment and belonging, helping care experienced young adults take the next steps toward independence and stability.
We offer training and mentorship for professionals and organisations committed to inclusive leadership, anti-racist practice, and culturally competent care. Our peer-led mentoring programmes bring lived experience to the forefront; connecting practitioners with community mentors who share real insights into the challenges and strengths of Black families. Together, they create space for reflection, growth and meaningful change. Through our interactive workshops and mentoring partnerships, participants learn to lead with empathy, equity and impact — shaping systems of care that truly serve every community.
