Details

This fund provides unrestricted funding to organisations that are led by people from Black and racially minoritised communities. This new fund is part of Corra’s commitment to supporting racial equity by providing targeted support to groups that have historically been under-resourced, in turn limiting their voice and power.

For this programme, your organisation is considered to be led by people from Black and racially minoritised backgrounds if it fits these criteria:

  • 75% or more of your Board of Trustees/Management Committee, are from a Black and racially minoritised background AND
  • 50% or more of the senior staff are from a Black and racially minoritised background (where staff exist).

If you are unsure whether or not your organisation meets this criterion, please contact Corra by emailing cref@corra.scot.
