Black Women UK Magazine is designed to deal with social, economic and political issues affecting black women and those of ethnic minorities. The issues include employment, education, housing, health and lifestyle.

The publishing of the magazine is as result of intensive market research that found out that current media do not give opportunity for black women to air their views or have forum to participate in discussing issues affecting them that include social, economics and political. The magazine empowers black women to be bold and discuss issues affecting them.

It acts as a forum and a linkage between black women, local authorities, the government and corporate institutions in solving various problems that affect black women and those of other minorities that include unemployment, low paid jobs they do, educational achievement of their children and if under-achievement to identify the causes and remedy. Housing issues,   health issues, teenage pregnancies, caring for the youths etc will be dealt with.  

The magazine aims at black women from the ages of 16 and above. Black men and women from different ethnic groups will long to read the experiences that black women go through. The magazine also directs women to self-employment as a way of solving the economic problems they face. It as well promotes successful black women.

* The first issue dealt with teenage pregnancies and how it is related to poverty, overcrowding in homes, and how they relate to the financial situation of their parents. Research shows that the government has no policy to help these teenagers from poor homes, but rather it has a policy to re-house teenagers that become pregnant due to their parental circumstances. Re-housing the teenagers is fair but if the families have been given adequate support would reduce the problem and also reduce the cost for taxpayers.

* The issue of doing so many low paid jobs is critically reviewed. The major factor for doing these jobs according to our research is money. It becomes a question of conscience and judgement as to whether it is fair or not for a mother to leave the children alone for hours and days in pursuit of money as oppose to doing moderate jobs and having time to supervise the children as they develop to be teenagers. The society attributes the crime rate and teenage pregnancies to parental absenteeism at homes.
