Providing an holistic health and wellbeing service to BME communities

Whilst the pandemic is now behind us, the Tamarind Centre continues to maintain an appropriate level of vigilance according to the current advice provided by the National Health Service.

What we do at Tamarind

Outreach & Support

More recently we took the decision to include a more preventative approach to our service delivery. We now provide health, wellbeing & social care support.

Group Services

We provide special interest days, gender specific groups & activities, carer support mornings, alternative therapy (yoga, massage), and health awareness sessions.

Counselling Services

Our Counselling Service, specialises in helping African, Asian and Caribbean communities with their emotional, personal and family problems.

Take Referrals

We accept professional and self referrals. Our services support the ‘whole’ person (from a culturally sensitive perspective) on the road to their recovery.

More about our services

Our service standards

  • Committed Staff & Volunteers

    Commitment is a characteristic of a person that means that S/he is willing to do their best in order to get the work done. We only employ a committed staff team.

  • Confidentiality

    The organisation will treat information concerning its service users as confidential. We will recognise their right to privacy and will ensure that confidential information is handled appropriately.

  • Person Centred

    Focusing care on the needs of the individual is what a person centred approach is about, ensuring that preferences, needs and values guide decisions, and provides care that is respectful of and responsive.

  • Holistic Approach

    Support that looks at the whole person, (and not just their mental health needs), is what an holistic approach is about. The support considerers their physical, emotional social and spiritual wellbeing.

We'll maintain these standards as an integral part of our governance and service delivery at all times.
