This powerful and reflective session is designed to deepen understanding of race, racism, and their impact within the football community and beyond. Through honest discussion and real-life context, we will explore how racism manifests in modern-day football and how it connects to wider societal issues and historical inequalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants will gain insights into the lived experiences of people from ethnically diverse communities and reflect on the role we all play in creating a more inclusive environment. The session will focus on practical steps we can take individually and collectively to challenge racism, promote race equity, and move towards lasting racial equality across Welsh football.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
