Runnymede's 40th Anniversary Appeal
2008 is Runnymede 40th Anniversary. To commemorate this landmark we have devised a range of special anniversary projects and events. Some look to the past and reflect on the change since our establishment in 1968. Others look to the future and mark out the territory that we need to focus on. Still others offer opportunities for new audiences - and in particular, young people - to engage with our work through new media. We plan to include
-
A mapping of ethnic inequalities in England and Wales
-
Our England - Our Community; a video art project for young people
-
An oral history project on race eqaulity in Britain over the last 40 years
-
An essay/broadcast competition for emerging journalists
-
A conference on the 'New Politics of Belonging'
-
A special anniversary lecture
These anniversary projects and events are being developed now and will be delivered during 2008 on top of our usual work programme of thought provoking publications, briefings, seminars, conferences and action research projects. To achieve this, however, Runnymede must raise additional funding for these extra activities. The trustees and staff at Runnymede very much hope that you will be able to help us by making a donation to our 40th Anniversary appeal.
Our aim is to raise £100,000 with the help of our friends and supporters. Any size donation will help us reach our target and we woudl be grateful for whatever support you can offer. For donations over £35 we are offering a one-year subscription to our quarterly journal, The Bulletin, which includes free copies of our main print-published reports and briefing papers sent to your door.
Thank you for your support.
