Ensure that Minority Ethnic Communities and individuals are involved in policy and decision-making which affect their interests
Address known 'invisibility' of BME groups/individuals in some areas in Suffolk
Improve existing services and infrastructure support
Develop new and tailored services to address the needs and gaps in services to Minority Ethnic Communities
Improve the sharing of information between all communities and the agencies and organisations serving them
Allow BME communities shape and influence infrastructure and statutory sector practices through forums such as training, seminars, consultation,publications and discussion groups.
