Project in brief

ATRD is a volunteer-led independent campaign working with cross sector partners to address the under-representation of people from Black and Asian backgrounds on charity trustee Boards. They aim to support charities to bridge the 6% under-representation gap (from 8% to 14%) by recruiting an additional 10,000 Black and Asian trustees by 2026.

We supported ATRD in the design of their groundbreaking report ‘From here to diversity: A Practical Guide to recruiting Black and Asian charity trustees’.

In partnership with Getting on Board and supported by the Co-op Foundation, the report was created to make a difference by helping to build more representative and inclusive charities.

”OXygen’s designers showed a high level of understanding, creativity, professionalism and, particularly, patience in interpreting our customer needs and adapting to them as they changed during the process, and even at the last moment. Feedback from our partners and supporters is that it's a fantastic piece of work.
