Description:

Race Equality Network (REN) is an umbrella group which aims to bring together Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities across Bradford and District.

We work with partners, individuals and over 180 organisations to provide support, celebrate diversity and campaign for equality.

REN was established in October 2000 as the Consortia of Ethnic Minority Organisations (COEMO) following concerns by BAME voluntary sector organisations that they were not properly supported by local Infrastructure organisations.

Bradford and District has a large but fragmented BAME sector, making it difficult to secure lasting improvements to the quality of life of ethnic minority communities. REN aims to change this.
