Thank you for visiting our site.

The last decade has seen unprecedented growth for the UK economy. But many people are still not sharing in this success and making a positive contribution to the economy and their communities because they are not in work. Our country’s economic competitiveness is hindered when we fail to ensure that all citizens have a good education and fair employment opportunities.

There are many reasons why people in the workforce that are without the appropriate education, skills and jobs. In spite of anti-discrimination laws many black and minority people are denied fair opportunities.

It is vital that the state does everything possible to support individuals that need help to make the difficult transition from benefits or inactivity into independent living. We believe that enterprising communities are successful communities. The third sector is well placed to work with others sectors to foster this ethos in areas where communities need inspiration, better leadership and better use of resources. All too often the policy intent is right but the implementation is inadequate.

BTEG want to see all ethnic groups achieving similar success in the education system and the labour market. Together we can make a difference by challenging poor and unfair policy and practice where ever we find it. So whatever your background you are welcome to work with us to find the right policy and delivery solutions.

We hope that this site provides you with a sample of our work. If you require more information please contact us.
