It is a cross party organisation that works on behalf of all of its member authorities regardless of political persuasion. London Councils makes the case to government, the Mayor and others to get the best deal for Londoners and to ensure that our member authorities have the resources, freedoms and powers to do the best possible job for their residents and local businesses. The organisation's race equality journey started in summer 2020 when colleagues at London Councils shared a clear appetite to establish how the organisation can be more proactive on race equality. We have since spent time outlining and framing the key steps we must take as an organisation to understand and define our role and responsibility. These key steps were initially and primarily reflected through recommendations put forward by an internal Race Equality task & finish group. These recommendations laid the grounding for our internal Race Equality Working Group's (the next phase of the task & finish group) subsequent activity to help shape our Corporate Strategy - this was comprised of the appointment of a Race Equality lead, engagement with all staff at London Councils and a range of initial actions and changes that have contributed to embedding race equality within the organisation (see Appendix C for a detailed outline of our journey). London Councils employs c.130 people, including c.40 colleagues from Black, Asian and other ethnic minority backgrounds - seven of these colleagues are in senior manager roles (additional information about our workforce's ethnic composition can be found in appendix C). The core outcome of our internal race equality work to date has been to establish the strategic ambition for the organisation, as articulated in our new Corporate Race Equality Strategy 2022-25. The Strategy outlines the steps we are taking to strive towards becoming an anti-racist organisation. To continue our race equality journey and help achieve our ambitions we want race equality to be central within our broader learning and development framework. Therefore we are seeking a contractor(s) to deliver the components of our learning and development ambitions, as outlined in the specification below.
