Workshop Details

Delroy Hall

"Have you attended many courses on Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, (EDI), and you are still missing what to do? You may have even written a course on EDI and secretly you still know you remain uncomfortable, fearful, and struggle working effectively with matters associated with race. Join me and others to explore another way in developing your competency in working effectively with race."

He is coordinator for a Black Male Suicide Prevention programme under the auspices Sheffield Health and Social Care (SCHC).

An area now occupying Delroy’s thoughts, reflection, and training, is racial trauma and racial healing. This is not so much simply an area of interest; it is of significant existential concern. With concern around race and injustice/abuse that can occur, both victim and protagonist need liberating.
