We’re inviting 1,000 people who live, work or study in Camden to apply to join our Diversity Panel — and this drop-in session is your chance to find out more.
As part of the Camden Community Wealth Fund, panel members will help decide how £2 million is invested in local businesses led by a diverse group of people.
Whether you’ve never done anything like this before or you’re already active in your community — we want to hear from you.
In this informal online session, you’ll be able to:
✔️ Learn more about the Diversity Panel and the application process
✔️ Ask questions directly to the team
✔️ Find out who we’re looking for
✔️ Get support to apply
We are especially keen to welcome applications from people who:
- Are d/Deaf or disabled
- Are from a Black, Asian or other ethnic community
- Have a low income or receive benefits
- Run a business
This is because people who meet one or more of the criteria have often found it difficult to access finance under traditional models.
You can join the session at any time – we will be sharing slides at the start of the session and answering questions afterwards - there’s no pressure to stay for the full hour.
All participants will be compensated for their involvement if successful on the panel.
The application form takes around 10 minutes to complete and must be submitted by Wednesday 6 August.
📍 Need support?You can apply online, pick up a paper form at any Camden library, or contact us at communitywealthfund@camden.gov.uk for support.
🗓️ The panel will run from September 2025 to July 2026 and panellists will meet regularly depending on their level of involvement online and / or in person.
