Ethnically Diverse Communities
Help to engage with and be inclusive to ethnically and culturally diverse communities.
Many people from ethnically diverse backgrounds face barriers to getting active, including experiences of discrimination, limited opportunities and a lack of representation. These challenges contribute to lower participation levels and fewer people from diverse communities taking on leadership or committee roles within sport.
Improving inclusion helps ensure that everyone has a fair chance to be involved, enjoy positive experiences and benefit from being active. Small actions can make a big difference, such as using clear and welcoming language, listening to community feedback and working with local community groups. These steps can help remove barriers and encourage more people to get involved.
