Much of our diversity comes from the British Empire, which at its height governed over one quarter of the world’s population – that’s 458 million people!
After the British Empire collapsed, people from the Commonwealth migrated to Britain, and countries such as the Caribbean and India were invited to help strengthen our workforce.
The expansion of the European Union has seen a number of Europeans come to the UK in recent years. 17

With equality and diversity comes a need to RESPECT difference! Do you want to live in a world where we can be who we want to be, listen to the music we like, eat the foods we enjoy, dress how we like to dress etc? Then we must remember that the person next to us has the right to do the same. And they are likely to be different...

27. Be proud
It is important to remember we are ALL different and it is our differences that make us unique and special, and that makes our country interesting. Be proud and confident in your differences! Respect and celebrate difference in others!

If we didn’t have freedom to be who we want to be and to be different, the world would be a boring place...

Different ways people dress, act, eat, think, speak etc.
Then celebrate their differences and think about how it makes them unique and special and adds to our diverse and interesting culture!
