Editorial standard
We prioritise NICE, BNF, NHS.uk, and other named official or peer-reviewed sources. Articles also cite specialist charities and observational research where that is the best public figure — and we label the source class. There are no public TEG videos yet; this standard will apply when they exist.
Educational content only. General health education, not personal medical advice. Always consult your own doctor.
What we do · 06
Long-form YouTube. Weekly newsletter. Free guide. Blog articles. Podcast. Course. Each surface points the same way: plain-English, evidence-based health education for African and ethnic minority communities in the UK.
Our standards
We prioritise NICE, BNF, NHS.uk, and other named official or peer-reviewed sources. Articles also cite specialist charities and observational research where that is the best public figure — and we label the source class. There are no public TEG videos yet; this standard will apply when they exist. Where guidance changes, the content gets updated and the change is noted.
The website is general health education — not personal medical advice. If something on TEG raises a question about your own health, the right next step is always your own GP.
