"Nabad iyo Nolol" (Peace in Life)

The "Nabad iyo Nolol" (Peace in Life) project is an innovative initiative aimed at providing a vital safe space for minoritised men in Newham. This project directly addresses the community's pressing need for meaningful and tailored support. Building on the success of our "Shaah & Sheeko" and "Hear Me Out" programs for women, "Nabad iyo Nolol" will foster an inclusive environment where minoritised men can confront their unique challenges through peer counseling and group discussions.

The initiative focuses on delivering comprehensive support prioritizing physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health. By addressing issues such as social isolation, health disparities, unemployment, and discrimination, we aim to empower participants through workshops on skill development, confidence-building, and personal advocacy related to housing and benefits.

Led by individuals with lived experience, the project encourages men to share their stories and cultivate resilience within the group. Collaborating with external service providers, including the NHS, we will ensure participants are informed about available resources. Ultimately, "Nabad iyo Nolol" is a crucial step toward enhancing the well-being and health outcomes of minoritised men in Newham, reflecting our commitment to building a strong, resilient, and united community.
