We're also delighted to launch the second in our series of Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) training courses and workshops this Autumn. 

It can often be difficult to have a confident conversation about race, different cultures and backgrounds, for fear of getting it wrong. Our Safe Space to Talk Race presentational workshop offers some different thinking, understanding and approaches in tacking this delicate topic. Places are fully funded for VCSE sector groups & organisations delivering services in Gloucestershire.

Course overview

It can often be difficult to have a confident conversation about race, different cultures and backgrounds, for fear of getting it wrong. The Safe Space to Talk Race presentational workshop offers some different thinking, understanding and approaches in tacking this delicate topic.

We want attendees to leave equipped with a different perspective, knowledge and confidence, to start and hold those valuable discussions, that allows us to foster thriving communities.
