Understanding and accessing healthcare in the UK isn’t always easy. Language barriers, unfamiliar systems, and uncertainty about where to go for help can make it even more difficult.

At EWEG, we are here to support BME communities to feel more confident when accessing health services. 🤝

Our support can include:

🏥 Helping you understand and access NHS services
📋 Supporting you to register with a GP or dentist
📱 Helping you use the NHS App and book appointments
🗣️ Supporting you to communicate your needs and speak up about your healthcare
📝 Helping you raise concerns or make a complaint
💙 Connecting you with relevant health and wellbeing services

We believe everyone should be able to access healthcare, understand their choices and have their voice heard.

If you or someone you know needs support, please get in touch with EWEG. 🌸

Please join us starting on 5th October 2026! It is free and women only. You will lose weight and make new friends.

🌊 A Wonderful Day Out in Brighton! 💙

EWEG were delighted to organise this special trip on the 21st August 2026 and spent the day with a wonderful group from our community.

From enjoying the seaside and beautiful views to sharing food, laughter and creating new memories together, it was a day full of happiness and connection. ☀️

It was wonderful to see everyone relaxing and enjoying themselves.

Here’s to more adventures, new experiences and happy memories together! 💕🌊

🥗 Diet & Nutrition Programme

We recently ran our Diet & Nutrition Programme — and the results spoke for themselves. 💛

Here's what one of our participants had to say:

💬 "I now eat healthier and less fatty foods, and I can read the calories on things I buy from the supermarket. I use spices instead of too much salt and oil. I learnt so much about the eat well plate, intermittent fasting, and now I do 10,000 steps every day."

Real knowledge. Real change. Real impact. 💪

Stay tuned for future programmes — we'd love to see you there!

🏥 Health & Advocacy Support — Free for BME Communities

Navigating the NHS can be confusing and overwhelming — especially if you're new to the UK, facing a language barrier, or dealing with complex needs. That's where we come in. 💛

We're here to help you: 📋 Register with a GP or dentist 📱 Use the NHS app and book appointments 🗣️ Advocate for you as a patient 📝 Raise concerns or make complaints 🤝 Connect you with illness-related support (cancer, mental health & more) 💙 Provide emotional and practical support

No one should have to face the healthcare system alone.

💬 Here's how we supported one of our clients:

Mr X was living in temporary accommodation with a mental health condition, glaucoma, no heating, and sky-high electricity bills — with no social worker or support network in place.

We accompanied him to his hospital appointment so he could understand his diagnosis and feel confident continuing his treatment. We reported his heating issue to the council — it was fixed. We wrote to his energy provider on his behalf and secured a refund for months of overcharging. And we contacted his GP to request a social prescribing referral.

Today, Mr X feels more confident, supported, and happier. He is no longer navigating life alone. 💛

If you or someone you know needs support, please get in touch:

✨ 99% have made new friends and feel less isolated ✨ Lost weight and lowered their blood pressure ✨ Walk more and have built healthier daily habits

💬 Miss X, 76, came to us recovering from mobility issues, rarely leaving her home. Today she has lost 6kg, built meaningful friendships, and developed a love for walking. Her confidence and wellbeing have transformed completely.

If she can do it, so can you. 💪
