Outside the Box was contracted by East Renfrewshire Council to establish a new Equalities Forum. From September 2023 to May 2024 we worked with community groups, organisations, and service providers across East Renfrewshire to encourage and support local people to participate in this new forum. This community-led group will bring people together from diverse communities across East Renfrewshire, sharing their perspectives and bringing their experiences to link in with local decision-making. The aim of the forum is to raise the voices of people who may not usually participate in public forums or decision-making to support communities to be well represented and heard when it comes to decision-making across East Renfrewshire.
