When we started Bridged, we knew what we wanted to create. A space that centered Black and Brown women. A space for rest, care, and connection. A space that felt like ours. What we didn’t fully know was just how much it would take to build something from the ground up, especially when you're trying to build it differently.

We recently sat down with Jacqueline Shepherd on The Scene on BBC Radio London to share the story behind Bridged, why we’re building a dedicated wellness space for Black and Brown women in South London, and what’s next for our growing community.

Bridged is honored to join the Trading for Good Social Enterprise Programme, a powerful initiative supporting social enterprises like ours. This opportunity will help us learn, grow, and expand our impact, strengthening our mission to create a dedicated wellness space for Black and Brown women.

Join us for a curated series of wellness, creative, and community gatherings designed for Black and Brown women. From yoga and meditation to art therapy and networking, these events offer a space for healing, self-expression, and connection. Stay tuned for upcoming dates—we can’t wait to see you there!
