“In every Pain, there is Gain”
We are a BAME self-development, emotional wellness and positive integration organisation. It’s created by lived experience leaders to inspire, empower and support immigrants to turn their Pain into Gain, becoming vibrant leaders within our communities. We are UK registered CIC, working in Staffordshire and Nottingham.
Tailored Approach
As a Black, Asians and minority ethnic (BAME) organisation, we focus on delivering 1-2-1 emotional and practical support, positive integration programmes, culturally tailored personal development, and wellbeing courses to immigrants within the community.

1.Offering online trainings and workshops
2.Offering telephone and online 1-2-1 coaching, emotional support and peer mentoring.
In the event of meeting face-to-face, we respect the following:
1.We ensure we wash and sanitise our hands appropriately
2.We ensure everyone wears a face covering as needed, especially if showing symptoms of Covid
It mostly begins from our childhood
We often carry along childhood unhealed emotional wounds into our adulthood, which gravely affects our personal and cognitive development. Our horrific experiences silence our voices; rupture our self-worth, inhibit our independence as purpose-driven individuals; leave us defenceless, paralysed with fear and anxiety. With a vibrant team of lived experience leaders at BornFAPEC, we want everyone to be happy. We seek to use our stories and help our beneficiaries to start and complete their recovery journey.
