Worcestershire Racial Equality Council

The Worcester Racial Equality Council was set up in 1989. In 1999 its name was changed to Worcestershire Racial Equality Council to reflect its county-wide brief, in-line with the local government re-organisation.

Worcestershire Racial Equality Council (WREC) is a very specialised constituted institution which enjoys charitable status. There are 7 members of staff of whom two are based in Redditch. WREC’s membership consists of individuals and representatives of organisations who have a genuine interest in racial equality and who wish to make a contribution towards the improvement of relations between people of different backgrounds.


We aim to bring together individuals of different cultural and racial identities as a collective body.

Worcestershire Racial Equality Council (WREC) assists people who believe they have been discriminated against, or who experience difficulty in using mainstream services because of language and cultural difference.

We offer free confidential advice and support in various areas, e.g., racial discrimination in employment, with the police, housing and social services.

We work to promote the provision of equality of opportunity and good race relations for all. For more information please visit our website http://www.worcestershirerec.org.uk/
