Together We Can
Make the World a better place for everyone.
WHO WE ARE
We are a non-profit organisation, and we help people struggling in poverty and isolation in the United Kingdom, the Caribbean and around the world. We are concerned with the disadvantages in the African Caribbean diasporas, Caucasians, Orientals, Asians and other diasporas in the Cambridge community. Through research and voluntary support, projects have been initiated to enhance people’s life skills as well as the quality of life in these communities. Our concerns are:
- High poverty rates
- High level of isolation
- Connecting cultures
Help the Children
Support children in families struggling with poverty. The Covid-19 epidemic has affected many families across Cambridge city. Our city is rich in cultural heritage and is renowned for technological advancement scholarly excellence, and business innovation. However, many families are still battling to survive as experienced across the United Kingdom.
Help us to provide support for families to help themselves.
WHAT WE DO
Loneliness and isolation
Loneliness is a dominant contributor to the decline in personal well-being, which is linked to an increase in health issues. We have isolated three potential factors that increase loneliness in the African Caribbean Communities.
Tackling poverty
The recent Social Metrics Commission (SMC) report published the increase in deep poverty among British families over the last 20 years in the UK. It was found that 46% of African Caribbean families were living in poverty, which was mostly due to the impact of Covid-19 and its on-going affects.
Connecting cultures
We believe that cultures should be open for everyone to enjoy. Exposure to different cultures promotes connections, tolerance and understanding. The African Caribbean Research Group celebrates cultures and strives to nurture communications between peoples with different cultural heritage.
