Get to Know Us
We’re more than a community hub, we’re a supportive family working to reduce isolation, uplift wellbeing and bring people together through culture, connection and compassion.
What we are about
We exist to reduce isolation, support mental well-being and help African individuals and families who need it most. We create safe, welcoming spaces where children, young people, parents and community members can connect, grow and feel supported.
Through wellbeing activities, youth programmes, community events and business support, we bring people together with care, culture and compassion at the heart of everything we do.
Who we are
We’re community organisers, parents, artists, students, business owners and dreamers united by our African heritage and love for community. We come from different countries and walks of life, but we share a common goal: to reduce isolation, support wellbeing and create welcoming spaces where African communities across Glasgow can thrive.
Why we exist
Because representation matters.
Because support should be accessible.
Because culture connects us.
Because no one should feel isolated, depressed, invisible, alone, or unsupported.
Our Vision
To build a Scotland where African communities are celebrated, connected and empowered, a place where everyone can thrive, belong and feel proud of their roots.
We envision a future where African heritage is not only preserved but shared with joy; where families feel supported, individuals feel seen and no one experiences isolation or hardship alone. A future where the African in diaspora flourishes across generations.
Our Mission
At Scot Afrique Hub, our mission is to:
Celebrate African culture through vibrant events, storytelling, food, music, and fashion.
Connect individuals and families by creating safe, welcoming spaces that foster friendship, belonging and mutual support.
Empower our community with access to resources, skills development, business support, and mental well-being programmes.
Support vulnerable groups, including new arrivals, isolated individuals, parents, job seekers and low-income families.
Bridge cultures by promoting understanding, inclusion, and collaboration between African and wider Scottish communities.
We exist to uplift African voices, honour our shared heritage, and ensure that no one feels alone, because when we come together, we all rise.
