In 2022, Kirklees Council, in partnership with the BAC (Black African and Caribbean) community in Kirklees, and diversity and inclusion specialists Amber and Greene, were nominated for the Community Project of the Year category at the British Diversity Awards in London.
The iRoko Community Alliance, formerly known as The Iroko project, was an innovative eight-month community-led initiative that aimed to uncover inequalities that the Black African and Caribbean community experience.
The project was delivered in partnership with the BAC community who described their lived experiences, their challenges, and their strengths and identified the steps and actions they felt would bring about impactful change. You can read more here:
