West of Scotland Regional Equality Council

WSREC was set up as the Glasgow Community Relations Council in 1971 to represent the many needs of our diverse minority ethnic communities. In the beginning, their services focused on casework, advocacy, and advice related to racial discrimination across all sectors.

However, over the years they have evolved their services to increase equal opportunities, expanding to other areas of service provision. Their current delivery champions equalities for all those who fall under the 9 protected characteristics (as outlined in the Equality Act 2010) and intersectionality. Age, Disability, Gender Reassignment, Marriage & Civil Partnership, Pregnancy & Maternity, Race, Religion or Belief, Sex, Sexual Orientation.
