A Nottingham charity is taking over a community centre that has been ‘closed for a long time’ - and officials have big plans on how to bring the community together. Diversifying Education Interest Company was founded 6 years ago.
Soon, they will be based at the Beechdale Community Centre in Ambergate Road. With a growing number of volunteers, Diversifying Education’s main aims are to celebrate and promote African and Caribbean Cultures and Traditions, as well as bringing communities together.
Shanine Fasasi, the founder of the charity, set it up 6 years after witnessing the misconceptions and stereotypes around Black, African and Caribbean students in schools whilst on her university placements. Now, working alongside many different local charities and organisations, the organisation will be able to reach out to more communities when they move in, in May.
