Between April and September 2025, 137 charities, trusts and foundations that predominantly work on environmental, climate, nature or sustainability issues submitted data to The RACE Report – Racial Action for the Climate Emergency. The NBN Trust is proud to have been one of the contributing organisations.
Isolating the ‘overall staff’ data for organisations that have participated in all four years of The RACE Report shows a gradual increase in the representation of people of colour and other ethnically minoritised groups. In 2022, representation was 6.2%, rising to 8.4% in 2025.
The NBN Trust
Our workforce does not currently reflect the population particularly in terms of race and ethnicity. All staff come from white backgrounds within the British Isles, with almost all identifying as White British or White English. We believe that broader involvement leads to better evidence and better outcomes for nature, and we are committed to progressing our EDI work over the coming years.
Through our participation in the RACE Report we also supplied information about our progress on EDI work and this can be downloaded – Download the NBN Trust’s Transparency Card
We contributed to the RACE Report for the first time in 2024 and will continue to do so in the coming years.
