Strengthening community cohesion through arts, culture, and heritage
Get StartedWe strengthen community cohesion through arts, culture, and heritage events and activities. We use heritage events as a catalyst to tackle the socio-economic challenges faced by minority groups, such as mental health issues, particularly among young people, loss of identity and self-worth, social isolation, lack of skills, and high unemployment.
Through these activities, we promote social inclusion, enabling individuals to integrate into society. We collaborate with various partners on impactful projects, including the African Heritage Collaboration Network (link here).
Together with these partners, we deliver the following activities:
CIS promotes events and services occurring in the West Midlands to underrepresented groups and the wider community.
This initiative is part of our commitment to improving community cohesion and making events and services more accessible to marginalised groups.

“I plan to apply what I learned to improve my health and try to make the recipes ourselves. That would be a lot more fun and practical.
More of these workshops will be highly appreciated.”
