People/communities experiencing racial inequalities

Share your experience and help build inclusive volunteering in sport for sanctuary seekers.

Manchester City of Sanctuary is carrying out a feasibility study to explore how sanctuary seekers (refugees and asylum seekers) can be better supported to volunteer in sports, physical activity, and movement.

ACEVO and Voice4Change England hosted the Home Truths 2, Race Equity Series. The series stimulated and supported meaningful anti-racist responses to civil society's ongoing racism problem.

The Race Equity Series is open to all in civil society:

BHA for equality have developed different resources in multiple languages on health, sexual health and wellbeing for individuals and professionals supporting them. The resources include a wealth of informative and engaging content, including videos, toolkits, and reports. These materials cover a wide range of topics related to health, from infectious diseases to health conditions to mental health. Our aim is to provide a set of resources that addresses the unique challenges faced by people of colour in the UK and beyond.

Voluntary and community sector offers ‘Five ways to build resilience’ in report aimed at turning lessons from last summer’s racist riots into action to protect communities in future.

The Voluntary and Community Sector Emergencies Partnership and research and innovation organisation Neighbourly Lab release a new report highlighting five ways communities can bolster their resilience against riots, should they happen in future.

Expressions of interest are now open for We Lead for Legacy 2025, the Greater Manchester Civic Leadership Programme. This pioneering initiative is designed to empower leaders from racially marginalised backgrounds across Greater Manchester, equipping them with the skills, networks and confidence to thrive in civic and public leadership roles. 

The Impetus Leadership Academy (ILA) is a leadership development programme to support talent from ethnic minority backgrounds in the UK youth sector to progress into senior leadership roles in youth education or youth employment organisations.

The programme supports participants to explore and develop their personal leadership styles, increase their knowledge in key management topics, and access networks that can unlock more senior leadership roles. The programme is designed and delivered by people from ethnic minority backgrounds for people from ethnic minority backgrounds.
