About Us PDF Print E-mail

The BME Network is specialist strategic infrastructure organisation which provides the framework and leadership to help people from different backgrounds to come together; supporting people to contribute to social and economic regeneration of Middlesbrough, and taking a stand against racism and extremists who promote hatred.

The BME Network is a non-profit making organisation and a registered Social Enterprise with over 80 Community and Voluntary Groups/Organistions as its members, the Network has a diverse management group with a wealth of knowledge and experience when it comes to community engagement, consultation, mentoring support and the worklessness agenda.

The BME Network has firmly established itself as a primary mechanism to engage the BME community and is often used by the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP) and individual partner organisations to engage, inform and consult the BME Community in the development of policy and strategy. The Network also provides support and guidance to organisation to improve service delivery and it is recognised by the LSP as an important part of its community engagement and empowerment mechanisms.

The BME Network has been cited by Government Office and others as a model of good practice for BME engagement, a model now being followed elsewhere in the North East with the Support and guidance of Middlesbrough BME Network. The Network has discussed many areas of policy and service delivery, including Employment, Education & Training, crime, health, housing and community cohesion. In many cases, strategies and plans have been amended in the light of consultation which has improved service delivery.
