BAME STATISTICS

BAME people are more frequently subjected to involuntary psychiatric hospitalisation than others, particularly young, black men.

BAME groups are generally considered to be at higher risk of developing mental ill-health

1 in 4 people from BAME communities don't share their mental health issues

My mission to use my voice as a mental health speaker to break the walls of stigma in the BAME community, by teaching others there is no shame if you are suffering with mental health
