National shortlist for Anti Racist Cumbria
A Cumbrian anti-racist group has been nominated for a national award and is asking for people to vote for it.
Formed last year, Anti Racist Cumbria has been shortlisted in the Community Organisation (Race, Faith and Religion) category at The National Diversity Awards 2021.
The voluntary organisation wants to make Cumbria the UK’s first anti racist county. It is already working with 50 schools across the county, built a range of partnerships, youth projects, and grown thousands of social followers.
Janett Walker, Anti Racist Cumbria co-founder and chair, said: “We are delighted to have been nominated for this National Diversity Award.
