Situated in Openshaw, Malawi Heritage UK is an organisation dedicated to fostering community wellbeing. Their Community Grocer, based at St. Vincent's Centre, is open and accessible to all. Offering weekly shopping experiences featuring cultural foods at a fraction of supermarket prices, customers can secure a £25 food shop for £5.

Powered by local volunteers, support from Fareshare, and local partners, the Malawi Heritage Community Grocery is a beacon of inclusivity for the local community. Their regular wellbeing sessions also provide a space for conversation, social interaction, and games for children, nurturing mental health and benefitting the local community members.

Malawi Heritage UK runs health and wellbeing projects in collaboration with partners such as Manchester Settlement. Malawi Heritage UK offers regular engagement sessions for its members, aimed at enhancing healthy lifestyles. Their initiatives seek to empower individuals to champion their own health, and facilitate information sharing and community cohesion.

The organisation also runs the Malawi Heritage Awards, which honours community champions, amplifying their impact and inspiring others in the process.
