How could the Equality (Race and Disability) Bill shape the future of equality law in the UK?

📅Join us on 28 May, 14:00–15:00, for a Policy Action Forum hosted by Action for Race Equality, as we prepare a sector-wide response to the Government’s call for evidence.

🗣️We’ll be discussing key areas in the draft Bill, including:

Through powerful dramatisations, these boys shared their thoughts on education, media portrayals, and the legacy of moments like the New Cross Fire. Their stories offer a rare glimpse into the perspectives of young Black boys navigating today’s world.🌍
