Who we are
With over 50 volunteers and six full-time staff, the NWMF is the leading anti-racism charity in the North West. Established in 2012, the Forum is a medium-size, high-impact organisation deploying complementary expertise and methodologies. The organisation brings proven expertise in grassroots campaigning as well as broader lived experience, rooted in being an umbrella forum led by the community’s needs.
Our Vision
Our vision is to change lives and transform the narratives around black and minoritised communities through tackling prejudice and stereotypes, normalising access to services and promoting respect, fairness, equality and success.
What we do
We offer support and advice through a variety of means including running funded events and projects that will educate participants, from BAME and traditional communities, and encourage them to challenge negative perceptions and policies that affect them while also gaining skills and confidence to make change happen.
We also offer advice in the areas of health services, legal, practical support,
social and educational integration, benefits, employment, housing, discrimination and much more.
