About this event
People of mixed and multi racial heritage are the fastest growing demographic in the UK. Whilst there can be much to celebrate about this manifestation of multiculturalism there may also be very complex challenges. Some struggle to find a sense of belonging; others feel confused about their identity if faced with discrimination and rejection from family members and the wider community. All of this can lead to poor mental and physical health, and some will seek therapeutic help.
There are practitioners all over the UK doing a fantastic job supporting these clients. But they are doing so without specialised training or educational materials. They have answered the call to bring together all their knowledge, and expertise at this one-day conference.
Presenters on the day will have ancestral roots from all over the world. They work as counsellors and therapists, social workers, academics, artists, and youth workers. Some presentations will be educational and others experiential.
This conference is open to all professionals working with clients or service users of mixed and multiracial heritage. We hope to see anyone working in social care, education or healthcare. Members of the public are especially welcome, so if you are of mixed or multi racial heritage yourself or are parents, grandparents, or wider family members – please join us.
