ProudMums brings families and communities together for a morning celebrating Black stories, health, heritage and the strength found in shared experiences.
ProudMums Black History Month 2026 invites mothers, families and members of the wider community to come together for an uplifting celebration of Black history, identity and wellbeing.
Under the theme Our Stories, Our Health, Our Heritage, the event will provide a welcoming space in which people can listen, learn, share their experiences and make new connections.
The programme will include inspiring talks and conversations exploring personal journeys, cultural heritage and the importance of protecting the health and wellbeing of Black mothers, families and communities.
Stories passed between generations play an essential part in preserving history and helping younger people understand who they are. This gathering will celebrate those stories while also looking towards a healthier and more confident future.
Organised by ProudMums CIC, the event is intended to uplift voices that are not always heard and recognise the knowledge, resilience and contribution found within Black communities.
Everyone is invited to take part in this celebration of the past, present and future.
Advance booking is recommended.
