I spoke to BBC Radio Leicester this week following on from the Telegraph’s article on multiculturalism in Leicester. 

Leicester has thrived as a result of its diverse communities, and although there is still work to be done, there’s lots to be proud of.

Connecting Communities

I’m committed to fostering unity across Leicester through multi-faith and community-led initiatives. I’m setting up multi-faith forums, creative competitions and regular community gatherings so we can bring people together to celebrate our diversity and foster lasting relationships. The diversity we have in Leicester is something to celebrate, and we must ensure that everyone in every community can reach their full potential.
