Do you feel uncomfortable wearing your natural hair to work?
On our LinkedIn page this week, we discussed wearing your natural hair to work!

Does it depend on where you work?
Or does it depend on how you feel? Or both?

Let us know - join the conversation

Encourage your community group, family, school or workplace involved! Especially as May is Mental Health Awareness Month.

Gardening is so therapeutic.

Mint, Lemon Balm and Calendula are the three seeds we are sowing for Seed to Sip, as part of our Screen Time to Green Time - Growing Together project.

There are so many similarities between growing hair and growing tea and for our 10th year anniversary, World Afro Day are inviting you to take part in our activities and events:

โ˜€๏ธEarlier this week I took this photo on a walk outside. It's so lovely to connect with nature, smile and take in the fresh air.

I'll be quite busy this Bank Holiday at a few events, so if you do see me, come and say hello!

The Seed To Sip project is live, so if you're taking part, don't forget to share your updates with us!

World Afro Day 2025 โ€“ Highlights Film ๐Ÿ’œ

From Parliament to children in Early Years, this year has been history in the making.

2025 was our ninth anniversary and we created something for everyone achieving a Guinness World Record for the most users to take part in an online cultural awareness lesson in 24 hours! We were in Parliament with Business Leaders, touched the nations of Australia and Cape Verde in our Ambassador LinkedIn Live, and launched in nurseries with our Little Seeds initiative in partnership with the National Day Nurseries Association!

A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible โ€” MPs, business leaders, educators, WAD Ambassadors and supporters who stood with us to celebrate Afro hair and identity.

Featuring moments with .thatsme



Nine years in the making โ€” and now, a Guinness World Record!
Thank you to everyone who continues to support and celebrate World Afro Dayยฎ๏ธ ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’œ
