Hurt & Healing is a Black survivor-led project raising awareness of abuse and the deep impacts of trauma. It will bring together survivors, supporters, artists, lecturers, well-being professionals, and thought leaders for an immersive experience of conversation, sharing, and healing.

Hurt & Healing will explore how the systems we live within create harm—and how we can accelerate change, build resilience, and imagine new ways forward. It is centred on inclusivity and the creation of safer spaces, aiming to spark meaningful impact in people’s lives and communities.

Hurt & Healing is in development. We are actively seeking the funding and partnerships needed to bring it to life. This pause has given us time to listen and plan, ensuring that when it launches, it will do so with the depth, care, and power it deserves.

Hurt & Healing creates space for survivors from Black and racially marginalised communities (BARMC) to gather, share, and release themselves from the pain and suffering of abuse — knowing their stories are testimonies, not shame.
The event also serves as a platform for universities, researchers, and healthcare professionals to listen, learn, and exchange knowledge so they can help shift policy, practice, and public understanding.

Little Ro is seeking sponsors, funders, and partners who believe in the urgency of this work. With your support, Hurt & Healing can become a transformative gathering and exhibition.
