Ethnic Britain was launched in 2002. Our aim was to raise awareness of key diversity issues in areas such as housing, education, employment and sport and to promote opportunities to the Ethnic Minority community. In October 2007, due to the formation of the Equality and Human Rights Commission we changed our name to Equality Britain covering all aspects of equality:

• Age
• Disability
• Gender
• Race
• Religion and Belief
• Sexual Orientation
• Transgender Status

"The Equalities Review, published on 20 February 2007, acknowledged that Britain now has more advanced equality legislation than most other countries. Yet despite progress, the employment rate gap between ethnic minorities and the UK workforce as a whole still stands at around 15%. This is one of the imbalances we are dedicated to resolving."

Trevor Phillips, Ethnic Britain Directory of Opportunity 2008.

Equality Britain's main aim is to continue to provide practical and efficient media tools enabling employers and service providers to send a positive message to all sections of the community.
