Intermix.org.uk is a website for the benefit
of mixed-race families, individuals and anyone who feels they have a multiracial
identity and want to join us.

Intermix.org.uk is here to offer information,
support, and the chance to build a community around and within the mixed-race
experience. Whatever your racial background you are welcome here as a
member of the human race.
Intermix was started in 1999 with a grant from the
Family Learning Millennium Awards by Sharron Hall, who wanted to address
the negative assumptions based around mixed-race individuals and their
families.
Sharron, herself mixed-race, wanted to address this imbalance by acknowledging
and celebrating the achievements of Mixed-Race individuals and their families,
past and present. She believes this will re-educate society with the objective
of ensuring the Twenty First Century will not see the Mixed-Race experience
as an issue but as a positive contribution towards a more harmonious society.
Intermix.org.uk is
part of Intermix, a not-for-profit organisation
that exists entirely on the goodwill of others. All work is done by volunteers
and those who offer their services for free because they have faith in
our work.
