What we do · 06
Long-form YouTube. Weekly newsletter. Free guide. Blog articles. Podcast. Course. Each surface points the same way: plain-English, evidence-based health education for African and ethnic minority communities in the UK.
Our standards
Every TEG video, article, and newsletter cites Tier-1 sources only: national guidelines, peer-reviewed journals, and government health bodies. Where guidance changes, the content gets updated and the change is noted.
The website is general health education — not personal medical advice. If something on TEG raises a question about your own health, the right next step is always your own GP.
