Black and Ethnic Minority Services within Corby

Economic migration and regeneration is changing the nature of the cultural and ethnic make up of Corby.  Developing cohesive and integral methods of communication and understanding of the needs of Black and Ethnic minority communities is central to the work of the community diversity officers.  

We facilitate and assist in developing:

  • Specific BME Focus Groups
  • Specific support to BME group/service development
  • Links into BME national, regional & local strategic networks
  • Volunteering opportunities for BME communities.
