Community Advisory Group

Our anti-racism Community Advisory Group has been set up to help us build on our existing work to challenge and tackle racism and racial inequality.  

It’s a key part of our anti-racist pledge to work with others to become an anti-racist organisation and towards an anti-racist city.  

The Community Advisory Group has met regularly, with the valuable insight of its members helping to ensure our anti-racism strategies are shaped and jointly led by the lived experiences and diverse perspectives of people who experience racism. 

The purpose of the Community Advisory Group is to: 

  • build on existing work to challenge and tackle racism and racial inequality
  • ensure that council’s and city anti-racism strategies are shaped and jointly led by the lived experiences and diverse perspectives of people who experience racism
  • work together, as partners, with a common commitment against racism

Community Advisory Group community members are all people who experience racism and who are active against it. Some are individuals and some are representatives of community or voluntary groups led by people who experience racism. Representatives of Brighton & Hove City Council are also members of the group. 

We’re currently holding six Community Advisory Group meetings a year.
