Caribbean and African Mental Health CIC "Culture Does Matter"

Pause. You’ve arrived.
There is still a significant stigma within Black communities around mental health and seeking support. Fear of judgement can prevent individuals from accessing the help they need.
At FikaWelie, we recognise the traumatic impact of racism on mental health. We are committed to removing that fear by creating safe, supportive, and culturally responsive spaces for adults of Caribbean and African descent aged 18 and over.
FikaWelie means “pause, you’ve arrived.”
Rooted in both Swedish and African meaning, it reflects a place where individuals can take a moment to breathe, feel safe, and begin their journey towards healing.
Our care is always individualised, recognising each person’s unique experiences, culture, and needs. We provide culturally relevant support for those living with mental health challenges, ensuring people feel seen, understood, and supported.
