Update from the BHI Board

Following the passing of our CEO Heather Nelson, we have been overwhelmed with the love and support from the community, the voluntary sector as a whole and all our partners and volunteers. We wish to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone to has reached out over the last few weeks.
Heather has been the driving force for BHI for 14 years and will be sadly missed by everyone at the organisation, our partners and by the communities BHI has supported.
Heather’s legacy will live on in the work BHI will continue to deliver in striving for equality of access to education, health and social care.
This year’s Black Music Festival will pay tribute to Heather and celebrate her outstanding contribution to the community of Leeds and beyond, please join us if you can on Sunday 27th August from noon onwards.
