Communities Inc
Nominee Profile
Location: Nottingham
Communities Inc is a Nottingham-based organisation working at the forefront of tackling hate, promoting inclusion, and strengthening community cohesion. Through education, training, and grassroots engagement, the organisation supports individuals and communities to challenge prejudice, build understanding, and create safer, more connected spaces.
Our work spans anti-racism, gender-based violence prevention, bystander intervention, and hate crime awareness — delivering impactful programmes such as Stand By Her and Stand By Me. These initiatives equip people with the confidence and practical tools to safely intervene, support others, and take an active role in preventing harm.
Rooted in lived experience and community voice, Communities Inc works across diverse groups, fostering dialogue and empowering people to move from awareness to action. Their approach is not just about responding to harm, but preventing it, shifting attitudes, behaviours, and culture over time.
Being recognised by the National Diversity Awards reflects the collective effort of the communities they work alongside and their ongoing commitment to building a more just and inclusive society.
