About the event
The event aims to talk about how community groups support our wellbeing. There will be talks from Youth workers at EYST on the informal support for young people of colour in Wales, the support Diverse Cymru provides including the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Mental Health Project, and talks from young people of colour from the Strength Within Project – talking about overcoming stigma through coming together in peer support. We’ll also have a breakout conversation around the benefit of youth, faith, community and support groups.
About Side by Side Cymru
