DESCRIPTION:Why is Covid having such a devastating impact on our older et
 hnic minority population?\n\nA new briefing from the Runnymede Trust and
  the Centre on the Dynamics of Ethnicity (CoDE)\, explores why Covid has
  had such a devastating impact on our older ethnic minority population. 
 In this webinar we will discuss some key points from the briefing:\n\n* 
 Older ethnic minority people are more exposed to the virus\, and to long
 standing inequalities in housing\, health\, employment and resources\, a
 ll exacerbated by the pandemic.\n* The loss of social spaces\, lack of d
 igital access for some\, coupled with language barriers for others\, has
  hindered their ability to maintain social connections and access resour
 ces and information.\n* Vaccine hesitancy is much more complex than pain
 ted in the media.\n\nWe will be joined by an expert panel:\n\nTracey Big
 nall\, Senior Policy and Practice Officer at the Race Equality Foundatio
 n\n\nDr Brenda Hayanga\, research fellow at the University of Sussex\n\n
 Shane Ward\, CEO of the West Bromwich African Caribbean Resource Centre\
 n\nThe event will be chaired by Dr Dharmi Kapadia.
