| Intercultural Youth Scotland | Intercultural Youth Scotland (IYS) began in 2019, born from a deep recognition of the need for safe spaces where young people could come together, share experiences, and push for meaningful change. Every programme and service has grown directly from the voices of the young people it serves. What started as a focus on Youth Work has expanded into Education, Advocacy, Employability, and a first of it's kind Mental Health Service – each rooted in the lived realities of Scotland’s young Black people and young People of Colour. |
| Radiant and Brighter | Radiant and Brighter Community was founded in 2012 and became a registered Community Interest Company in 2014. We aim to promote diversity through education, inspiration and changing perceptions, applying the insights gained by our founders on their own journey to deliver greater societal integration and economic participation. The organisation was founded by Micheal and Pheona Matovu after experiencing years of unemployment as a result of immigration controls and gaps in employment support provision. From their personal experience and learning acquired during this period, they started up an initiative to provide much needed support for migrant communities. |
| Scottish Highlands and Islands and Moray Chinese Association (SHIMCA) | SHIMCA (the Scottish Highlands & Islands and Moray Chinese Association) was founded in 2004. The Association has now over 550 members from all over the North of Scotland and Moray areas. SHIMCA is a recognised charity which is a non political, non religious and not for profit organisation. |
