Let’s Talk About Race - delivered by Hayley Bennett

Date: Thursday 27 May

With the ongoing issues of racism in football, allyship is imperative to help influence change. This interactive virtual workshop will provide delegates with the opportunity to understand more about race, the impact of racism and help to build our collective awareness and confidence in talking about race, in order to have a positive impact.

Join us for an inspirational and educational session with Hayley Bennett and by the end of the course, participants will:

• Understand key terminology relating to race, racism and anti-racism
• Understand more about racial inequality and its impact on football, workplaces and society
• Develop confidence in engaging in dialogue about race
• Be able to have honest, constructive and respectful discussions about race.
