๐ŸŒฟ Culture Care North Day Care Programme ๐ŸŒฟ

We are delighted to announce that our Day Care Programme has officially started and will take place every Monday at 11:00am at Baytul Ilm Academy.

Our wonderful group of ladies have come together to begin making traditional clay chulas (cooking stoves), bringing back memories of how they used to cook while growing up in Bangladesh. This project was entirely their idea and reflects the importance of preserving culture, sharing experiences, and reconnecting with cherished traditions.

The ladies are excited to work together and hope to bring their vision to life as a group. It has been inspiring to see their enthusiasm, creativity, and teamwork already shining through.

We look forward to sharing their journey and celebrating the knowledge, skills, and memories that make our community so special.

Some brilliant ideas ๐Ÿ™Œ

Culture Care North CIC was pleased to participate in the Rank Foundation Sunderland Black & Racially Minoritised VCSE Stakeholder Events โ€“ Sessions 1 & 2.

These sessions provided a valuable opportunity to engage with community leaders, organisations and partners from across Sunderland to discuss the opportunities, challenges and future priorities for Black and racially minoritised communities.

As a culturally responsive social care organisation, we recognise the importance of community voice, lived experience and partnership working in shaping services and creating more equitable outcomes. It was encouraging to be part of conversations focused on strengthening community infrastructure, leadership, collaboration and long-term sustainability.

Thank you to the Rank Foundation and all those involved for facilitating these important discussions. We look forward to continuing to work alongside partners and communities to help create inclusive, connected and thriving communities across Sunderland.

Very insightful event! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Today, Culture Care North was proud to attend the North East Anti-Racism Coalition event at Northumberland College

It was great to come together with organisations, community groups, and partners who share a commitment to creating a North East where racism and hatred have no place, and where diversity, inclusion, and equality are celebrated.

The coalitionโ€™s mission is to build a visible anti-racist movement, strengthen community cohesion, support organisations, and promote positive change across our region.

We look forward to continuing to work with others to help create communities where everyone feels safe, respected, valued and able to thrive.๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™Œ

Culture Care North CIC Director Rehana Sultana and our Community Ambassador Amina Begum attended the Fuse Research Event at Northumbria University focused on Co-producing a culturally appropriate living options framework with older people from South Asian communities.

The event explored healthy ageing, culturally appropriate support, and the importance of relationship-based and person-centred care within south Asian community

One of the strongest messages from the day was that โ€œhomeโ€ is much more than a building - it is relationships, familiarity, dignity, faith, culture, and community connection.

These discussions strongly reflected the vision behind Culture Care North CIC and the work we are already developing around culturally and faith-informed, community-rooted care and support for older people from ethnically diverse communities.

Through our work, we recognise the importance of language, trust, family involvement, cultural understanding, and helping people remain connected to their identity and community as they age.

Thank you to Fuse, Northumbria University , and everyone involved for such a valuable and meaningful event.

It was an honour for us to be part of the Cultural Spring Cultural Arts for the Community and meet up for the Community Cohesion Steering Group reflection and legacy session โœจ

The Our Home project was created to strengthen connections and celebrate Sunderlandโ€™s diverse communities through creativity, conversation, and shared experiences ๐Ÿค๐ŸŽจ

We are proud to have been part of a programme that focused on rebuilding trust, amplifying community voices, and creating safe spaces for people from all backgrounds to come together.

It was especially meaningful to see the commitment to working alongside different communities, and those affected by the 2024 disorder.

Partnership work like this shows the power of community-led change and the importance of making everyone feel seen, heard, and valued ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’š Mental Health Awareness Week ๐Ÿ’š

Faith, culture, identity, stigma, and lived experience all shape how people understand and access mental health support - yet these conversations are still often missing within mainstream services.

At Culture Care North CIC, we believe support should feel safe, compassionate, culturally understanding, and accessible for everyone.

Letโ€™s continue creating spaces where people feel heard, valued, and not alone ๐Ÿค

Your mental health matters.
