About
BLACK to LIFE brings together health practitioners, thought-provoking speakers, performers and members of our community for a day dedicated to putting our health and wellbeing at the centre of the conversation.
From understanding our history and the experiences that continue to shape Black health today, to exploring nutrition, movement, mental wellbeing and approaches to healthier living, Black to Life is about knowledge that can lead to action.
Hosted by Hidden Truth and New Initiative Catering, the day combines conversation with practical health and wellbeing sessions, music, meditation, food and opportunities to connect.
This isn’t simply about talking about health.
It’s about giving ourselves the knowledge, tools and community to live well.

Conversations That Matter

Food has always been about more than simply eating.
It brings families together. It carries culture and memories. It creates conversation and connection. And, importantly, what we eat plays a significant role in our health and wellbeing.
As co-host of Black to Life, New Initiative Catering will bring its distinctive approach to Afro-Caribbean food to the event.
