Our Mission
Holistic Support is a social enterprise committed to promoting well-being. We strive for equity and equality and want to bring about social change and raise consciousness. We believe in equipping people with tools so they can be their best selves and in empowering the community so it can grow stronger together.
WHAT WE DO
The basis of our workshops is the tree of life. The tree of life is a symbol of a new start, but also a reminder of where you came from. To look ahead and move on, you have to first look back and understand what made you who you are (your behaviour pattern, coping mechanisms, limiting beliefs and core beliefs). The roots of the tree represent where you came from and what you are made of; the trunk is what you have become; the branches are the choices you make and the directions you take; the unbloomed flowers are your aspirations and dreams, and the bloomed, your achievements.
Once we pinpoint which branches need trimming and which don’t, we can implement a self-sustaining system to make sure your tree can grow in the best possible way and bloom all of its flowers.
By identifying your behaviour pattern and understanding what limits you (limiting beliefs) and what makes you tick (true goals), we can tailor a plan to rewire you brain and reshape your life. We use the wheel of life, creative visualisation, affirmations and role-playing to make sure you can be your best self.

My name is Fatou I am the founder of Holistic Support, African Menu Box and Dalston Round Table. During the BLM movement I felt committed to support my local community and help black bussiness.

dalston round table project
Revitalisation of Gillett Square and its surroundings to provide Dalston with a safe space for the local community.
DALSTON ROUNDTABLE PROJECT
Dalston Round Table was created to support Gillett Square and the black owned businesses in and around the Square we engage with its community to enjoy one of the most authentic Public Square left in London!!!!
Summer Camp - Parkour Session
The idea is to engage children and teenagers in a series of Parkour workshops in Gillett Square and surrounding playgrounds (with the square as a pick-up point). Parkour is a training activity that involves elements of climbing, running and acrobatics where the practitioners try to get from one
point to another in a complex environment in the most efficient manner. Besides the physical benefits, such as the development of agility, coordination, stamina, core strength, cardio endurance and increased oxygenation of the brain, this activity also boosts confidence and self- esteem, relieves anxiety, builds mental fortitude, fosters creativity, promotes quicker thinking, develops problem-solving skills and decreases anti-social behaviour (reducing crime rates amongst the youth participants in 69% according to the Metropolitan Police). This could be instrumental in the recovery of Gillett Square and in making it a safe, family-friendly place again.
Family Fun Day
The aim of this event is to draw Dalston’s intergenerational, multi-cultural communities together in a way that both breaks down barriers and provides scope for the community to learn more about each other and the local services, networks, and organisations.

Boxing Session
The aim of the boxing sessions is to create a space where participants can release their frustration in a positive and safe environment . Besides having physical benefits , boxing increases the production and release of endorphins, which improves happiness. All of our trainers are qualified and have experience in coaching and helping participants identify and channel their stress and unwanted emotions in order to function more healthily and lead a more proactive life. We offer sessions for mothers alone or mothers and children.
