An annual UK-wide movement uniting thousands of organisations and individuals to address the barriers to race equality in the workplace.
Last year we marked Race Equality Week for the first time in the diocese. The week aims to raise awareness of racial equality and inspire ongoing action across workplaces in the country.

Pledges and promises
As a diocese, we used Race Equality Week 2022 to highlight the action we are taking to improve race equality and set #ActionNotJustWords pledges to continue improving race equality in all areas of our mission and ministry.
Here's how we're doing so far - there's more to do but real action is making a real difference.

What do young people say?
The diocesan UKME Enabler Polly Falconer visited Aylesbury Vale Academy earlier this year. Polly had the pleasure of chatting with six pupils from Years 6 and 7 about what racial justice means to them. You can watch that in full on our YouTube channel. A HUGE thank you to the six amazing pupils for such great discussion.
Why not show the film below in your class or youth group as a conversation starter - do the young people in your life agree with what's said? Do they have anything to add? You can download the video here.
