The alliance of home nations sports councils launch the next phase of their review into racial inequalities with a campaign to encourage people to share their own stories. They have launched a major piece of work called #TellYourStory this is a major research programme exploring racism in sport to help create real change and shape a roadmap for action. 

Throughout January AKD Solutions have been commissioned to host a number of confidential online forums for Black, Asian & Minority Ethnic communities to share experiences of facing racial inequality in sport in an open & safe space.

Around 600 Black, Asian and minority ethnic people will be given the opportunity to tell their story of racial inequality in sport as the five UK sports councils begin their lived experiences audit.

In September we announced that we, along with UK Sport, sportscotland, Sport Wales and Sport Northern Ireland were joining forces to tackle racism and racial inequalities across their nations.

The aim was to develop a collective plan to help build a sporting community that’s reflective of the societies they represent. And part of that announcement was a commitment to making a safe space for Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) people to recount their experiences of racial inequality.

In Volleyball we pride ourselves in being truly inclusive, perhaps you have had a different experience! Make sure you tell your story.
