Hammersmith & Fulham is one of the most diverse places in the country, home to communities of people with different identities, cultures, languages and traditions including some of the poorest and some of the wealthiest in London. We encourage participation from all sections of our diverse community, irrespective of age, disability, sex, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sexual orientation, or because someone is married or in a civil partnership. Hammersmith & Fulham Council are consulting local residents and organisations on their draft Equalities Plan, and would welcome your views. The consultation closes on Friday 14th May, and you can find the consultation documents, including an easy read version by following the link below. https://lbhf.citizenspace.com/hf/equality/
NCVO and the University of Kent are currently working with partners on a collaborative research study looking at volunteering during Covid-19. The research aims to strengthen the evidence base on the impact of Covid on volunteering and what support is needed within communities and organisations. Learning from the research will generate recommendations to help inform recovery and shape future policy. Complete the survey here.
