Funding Inequalities Report Launch. 8 Dec 2021

On 8 December 2021, ECN hosted a General Meeting and Launch of  the Funding in Inequalities Report:

“Understanding perspectives on funding challenges and inequalities experienced by small Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) led voluntary sector groups in the London Borough of Ealing”

This was the first in person meeting hosted by ECN since December 2019 and was conducted as a hybrid meeting. Although there were some technical issues to begin with for people attending on Zoom being able to hear properly, the launch and General Meeting were considered a success.

Our special guests at the launch included:

• Cllr Aysha Raza, Portfolio holder for Tackling Inequality with Ealing Council
• Kieran Read, Director Strategy & Engagement at LB Ealing
• Narinder Sian, MaelGael

Special thanks to our volunteers:

• Narinder Sian of MaelGael Charity and Director of Dragonfly Publishers, for support in managing the IT needs of the meeting
• Young Ealing Foundation for loaning us one of their staff, Jevgenijs Zajecs, to support the meeting
• Ali Elmi, ECN DI volunteer
• Jackie Sear, ECN Exec member

Minutes and actions from the meeting will be available soon.
