STATISTICS
All of the statistics below could be improved if Black women had access to personal development tools like our other counterparts. How can we pour from a cup when it is empty, to begin with? For all this to change, it starts with self-care spaces created and dedicated exclusively for the black woman.
Black women in non-secure work often have little control over the hours they work and how often, creating huge financial uncertainty, anxiety, and stress. The unpredictability of their take-home pay makes it increasingly difficult to plan financially, access credit, secure mortgages & business loans or tenancy agreements. Constantly varying working hours also has an impact on family life, making it difficult to organise childcare, the care of older relatives and a social life.
More of London’s murder victims were Black than any other ethnic group despite 59.8 percent of the city’s wider population being white.
Analysis of social deprivation, education, employment prospects and other factors all play a part in the fabric of violence.
WAPBRUNCH is here to change the narrative by putting Black women’s self-care first!
Let’s have more COLLABORATION over COMPETITION.
There is true POWER in SISTERHOOD.
