Race Equity Impact Report 2021

This is just the start

In 2020 we made a public commitment to become a truly anti-racist social enterprise, learning and leading by example. Our ambition: A society in which racial justice is the norm. A society in which everyone is equally valued and able to bring their whole selves to every situation. A society in which mental health outcomes are never determined by race or ethnic background. It was never going to be an easy journey. While it is right to use this report’s publication as a moment to pause and take stock of the significant impact we have already made, we cannot allow complacency to creep in. This is just the start. This report is our way of being accountable, sharing the learnings that we can take forward, and renewing our commitment with humility, open minds, and even greater determination than before. Now more than ever, we all need to be proactive in seeking to challenge, confront and change our attitudes, beliefs, values and behaviours, in our own organisation and across the world. This is a moment in time that holds the promise of long overdue and transformative change. Let’s collectively seize it and work together to dismantle racism in every area and ecosystem in society. Our journey continues…
