WHO WE ARE
Race Council Cymru works to promote race equality, art, heritage and cultural activities for black and minority ethnic communities across Wales.
Race Council Cymru (RCC) was established in 2010 as an overarching umbrella body with the mission to bring together key organisations within Wales to cooperate on promoting integration, championing justice and race equality in institutions and society.
RCC engages with BAME grassroots communities and works directly with the local authority, governing bodies and businesses to promote awareness of race inequality. We work to establish and facilitate channels of communication with minority ethnic and grassroots communities throughout Wales in conjunction with and on behalf of Primary Stakeholders, Welsh Government, Local Authorities and other such private and public bodies.

Statements on COVID-19 (Coronavirus)
In these difficult and unprecedented times, Race Council Cymru recognises the serious impact on all of our communities arising from Covid-19 and we are doing as much as we can to support and signpost our communities to the latest official up to date information and guidance in as many languages as possible.
All RCC staff continue to work from their own homes now that our office building has had to shut to the public and we will be uploading information about ongoing projects, opportunities and support services as we receive them.
We’ll continue to share them via our website and social media accounts.
