ACCR The African Community Council for the Regions was established in 2000 in response to the absence of a co-ordinated culturally-sensitive service for African refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants living in the West Midlands region. It acts as an umbrella organisation for Community Groups as well as providing services itself. It exists to create and maintain an efficient and effective user-friendly service that aims to alleviate ill-health and improve conditions that may otherwise lead to economic deprivation. Also known simply as ACCR, its other aims concern removing barriers to social, educational and vocational achievements. Projects also combat unemployment and seek to ease hardship and distress within local African communities. ACCR supports many other local African organisations by helping them to improve their own services, and it encourages African individuals and communities to integrate into their host community - whilst also maintaining, promoting and celebrating their own pride and cultural diversity. ACCR offers its wide range of services to all Clients free-of-charge and without discrimination. External Links
