Welcome to Rooted Wisdom
About us
Rooted Wisdom stands as a dynamic and progressive educational endeavour situated in South London. Our mission is centred on empowering young individuals by nurturing positive racial esteem and identity. What sets us apart is our distinct emphasis on anti-racism, Black British culture, and mental well-being, catering to a diverse array of backgrounds and experiences within our community. More than just an educational consultant, we serve as a cultural hub, a mentoring service, and a training organisation, amalgamating various facets into a singular, comprehensive platform.
We take pride in producing and distributing our own resource materials, in addition to conducting assemblies and workshops in schools and the broader community. These materials are meticulously crafted to align with our distinctive mission, aiming to cultivate resilience, foster growth, promote inclusivity, and nurture positive mental well-being. At the core of our mission lies our unwavering dedication to nurturing positive self-esteem, social awareness, and identity—an element often overlooked in mainstream education. As such, our products transcend being merely educational tools; they serve as vehicles for empowerment and self-discovery. Our offerings exceed traditional classroom boundaries. We provide a diverse array of educational services, cultural awareness programs, mentoring, and family support services. By prioritising the promotion of resilience, growth, and positive mental well-being alongside our educational initiatives, we adopt a holistic approach to youth development. Our belief is centred on nurturing the complete individual, recognising their complex needs, not solely focusing on academic proficiency.
Dedicated to championing the well-being and rights of young individuals navigating the intricacies of the care system and engaging with services such as Youth Offending Teams and Probation. Drawing from our profound comprehension and vast experience, we empower each young person to be well-versed in their rights and the potential pathways open to them. Our assistance extends to families and encompasses both victims and perpetrators of crime as they navigate the daunting terrain of criminal court proceedings, often for the first time. Leveraging our expertise, we provide the necessary guidance and support they require during these trying circumstances. With diverse backgrounds including Pupil Referral Units, schools, and local authorities, our team significantly enhances our capacity to effectively serve the community. Moreover, we passionately advocate for crucial issues like combating Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) and countering county lines and child exploitation. We acknowledge the paramount importance of safeguarding our youth against these pervasive risks.
