A collection of its own
ACAP Made
Handmade items from Erica's own Peer Support groups at ACAP, kept separate from Mimi Joi's own goods, with its own real story.
What ACAP Made is
ACAP Made items are created by members of ACAP (African Caribbean Achievement Project)'s own Peer Support groups, run by Erica in Bradford. ACAP is a real, established Bradford charity, founded in 1995, working to uplift and empower the African Caribbean community through education, health and wellbeing, and arts and culture programmes.
Made through real peer support
Create Connections
Wednesdays, 11am–2pm at ACAP, Bradford, open to all. A relaxed arts-based peer support space where some ACAP Made pieces come from.
Therapeutic Thursdays
Thursdays, 1pm–4pm at ACAP, Bradford, a women's-only peer support group, the other real source of ACAP Made pieces.
Community impact
These sessions form part of Hope and Light, mental health peer support for Bradford's Black African and Black Caribbean communities, delivered jointly by ACAP, Bradford District & Craven Mind, and Staying Put. Every ACAP Made purchase connects back to that real, ongoing community work, not just a shop transaction.
ACAP Products
Every piece here is handmade through ACAP's own Peer Support groups. New pieces are added as they're finished.
