Welcome to Cheshire, Halton & Warrington Race & Equality Centre's Website.  We have recently changed a few items which we hope will make our website more accessible.  All comments will be greatly received.

Recent News

Successful Case
We have recently been successful in a case involving a Polish Migrant worker who had been discriminated against in the work place.  You can read an article in the Chester Chronicle here. (opens in new window)

Name Change
At our AGM in 2008 our members decided to change our name to Cheshire, Halton & Warrington Race & Equality Centre to enable us to build on the work that we already do by covering all equality strands..  We have now had agreement from the Charity Commission to do this.  Some documents on the website may still have our old name on them "Cheshire, Halton & Warrington Racial Equality Council" but all future work will be using our new name.

New Report Commissioned by the EHRC
You can now download the new report commissioned by the EHRC titled, "Responding to Discrimination: The Geography and Geometry of Advice Provision in England, Scotland and Wales" (PDF) from our website.
