Sheffield Race Equality Commission Report

The Race Equality Commission (REC) has concluded that racism and racial disparities remain significant in the lives of Sheffield's citizens. What has been shared with the Commission spans education, crime, justice and policing, sport and culture, health, business and employment, civic life and communities, and more. The perpetuation of racism, and racial disparities across sectors and major institutions in the city compel the Commission to restate the urgency to instigate positive measures and improvements in organisations and among its citizenry.
The Race Equality Commission was established by Sheffield City Council to make a non-partisan strategic assessment of the nature, extent, causes and impacts of racism and race inequality in the city and to make recommendations for tackling them.
