One thing we have learnt over the last few days, is that we have a lot to learn.
So we have started to compile a list of links to learning resources that have been suggested to us along with anti racism charities and related funding pages. It is by no means comprehensive so please let us know of any ideas on what to read / watch / listen so we can learn from and share.
