Media Trust in partnership with Equally Ours is pleased to announce that the Stronger Voices Programme 2020/21 has officially launched! This communications training programme has been specifically designed to strengthen the voices of equality organisations across London. Each year, 15 equality organisations in London will have the opportunity to take part in a six-month programme of communications training and mentoring to amplify their voices through expert communications and digital training. In light of the challenges presented by Covid-19 the programme has been re-designed with the needs of the sector in mind. Applications are now open for London based equality charities who meet the programme criteria: · supports beneficiaries from one or more of the nine protective characteristics detailed in the Equality Act (2010) · is working in one of the 32 London boroughs · can provide at least three years of financial records · is a small to medium sized registered charity with a turnover of £2 million or less Additionally, up to 50% of the places on this year’s programme are reserved for voluntary organisations that support people and communities of colour and/or are dedicated to tackling racial disparities. Within this, we’re prioritising organisations that are led by and work with Black, Asian, or other ethnic minority communities. Applications are now open and will close on the 2nd of September.
