Introduction to the Race Review
The Bradford District in West Yorkshire is one of the best known multi-cultural centres in Britain and represents a unique challenge to race relations.

The District was once blessed with economic wealth and prosperity. But with the demise of the wool industry and the decline in manufacturing, the District has seen a slide in its fortunes. It has struggled to redefine itself as a modern, 21st century, competitive, multi-cultural area and has lost its spirit of community togetherness.

As a result, the Bradford District has witnessed growing divisions among its population along race, ethnic, religious and social class lines—and now finds itself in the grip of FEAR.
