Tees Valley BME Awards 2023... Celebrating Diversity and Achievements
The award recognised our contribution to acknowledge and address disparities experienced by the Black and Minoritised Ethnic (BME) community across South Tees.
HWST was shortlisted for its dedication to enhancing public health and wellbeing. Specifically, by supporting equality, diversity and inclusion through community events, including the Community Champions Programme. Idress Rashid, who presented our category, highlighted our collaboration with community organisations and faith groups to amplify diverse messages about our work within these communities.
It was with gratitude and great pleasure to receive the nomination and to join together in celebrating the amazing achievements of others at the 2023 BME awards.
Well done to Teesside University for winning this category.
