Bridging Change

Supporting Black and racially minoritised communities with wellbeing initiatives for groups and individuals.

Bridging Change is an independent, Black and racialised minority (BRM) organisation that aims to tackle issues around inequity, supporting BRM communities and groups through infrastructure training, engagement and wellbeing initiatives for groups, individuals and organisations.

Bridging Change was established by Nora Mzaoui and Dr Anusree Biswas Sasidharan who met as fellow elected Community Works Reps, representing Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic communities in Brighton and Hove.  They realised that there was a gap in support and representation of minoritised communities within the community, voluntary and public sector. Bridging Change want to fill that gap.  They were driven by the belief that Black, Asian and  minoritised ethnic organisations, groups, communities and individuals were strongest when they worked together to challenge systemic barriers. 

Building Alliances and Community Developement

At Bridging Change we are about relationship brokerage and building up agency in minoritised ethnic groups and organisations. We do this by:

  • facilitating spaces, events and networking meetings focusing on specific issues affecting Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic communities;​
  • co-producing workshops with the Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic communities and decision-makers to discuss, develop and design policy and
  • recognising that social capital and agency amongst minoritised groups, communities and organisations will see agents of change in our city.
