Black Thrive - Lance Stewart, Head of Finance and Operations

Black Thrive’s primary mission is to confront and dismantle the structural and systemic inequalities that harm the mental health, wellbeing and life chances of Black communities in the UK, and to build community-centred infrastructures that foster healing, equity, and collective liberation.

Black Thrive was established in direct response to a historic and ongoing crisis, one that is not incidental, but structural. We are driven by the recognition that the poor mental health outcomes in our communities are not the result of individual weakness, cultural failings, or lack of resilience, but of entrenched systems of oppression, systems never designed for our care, protection, or flourishing.
