Welcome to the home of the Halo Collective

We are the Black hair revolution

We are an alliance of organisations and individuals working to create a future without hair discrimination, founded by young Black organisers from The Advocacy Academy.

Race-based hair discrimination has been illegal in the UK since the the Equalities Act became law in 2010, and yet it still happens all the time.

For too long, Black people have been told that our hair textures and hairstyles are inappropriate, unattractive, and unprofessional. We’ve been suspended from school, held back in our careers, and made to feel inferior by racist policies and attitudes.

Together, we are fighting for the protection and celebration of Black hair and hairstyles.

Our Mission

Our mission is to end hair inequality for good.

Why We Exist

Hair discrimination remains a source of racial injustice with serious consequences for Black people in the UK.

Despite hair being a protected racial characteristic under the law, there is a widely held belief that Black hairstyles are not suited for formal settings, and may be unhygienic, messy, disruptive, or unkempt. These ideas strike at the freedom and dignity of Black people and serve no purpose other than to instil shame in us about our Blackness.

No one should have to change their natural or protective hairstyle in order to thrive. Together, we will ensure that all Black people can learn, work, and live free from hair discrimination.

There are a number of different methods you can use to deposit and withdraw funds at online casino using GCash. These include traditional credit and debit cards (VISA, MasterCard, etc), e-wallets (PayPal, Neteller, Skrill) and more. Each has its own benefits and drawbacks, but all of them provide you with a high level of security and near-instantaneous transactions.
GCash is a mobile wallet app backed by Globe Telecom in the Philippines and is used as a payment option at many top-rated casinos in the country. The service is renowned for its convenience and speed, as well as for supporting responsible gambling. It allows players to set daily transaction limits and even self-exclude from gambling sites for a specified period of time.
To use GCash at an online casino, you need to register for an account and fund it. You can do so via the ATM, through your bank or at a retail outlet. Once your balance has topped up, you can start playing for real money. You can also use the GCash app to pay bills, send cash abroad and make other purchases.

Spletni casino v Sloveniji ureja ministrstvo za finance, nadzoruje pa jih davčna uprava. Čeprav ima vlada monopol nad lokalnimi ponudniki iger na srečo z licenco, lahko igralci še vedno izbirajo med mednarodnimi blagovnimi znamkami, ki ponujajo varno in zanesljivo igralno okolje. Najboljša slovenska spletna mesta z igralnicami imajo mehanizme za odgovorno igranje na srečo, jasne politike KYC in preproste pogoje poslovanja, ki igralcem olajšajo razumevanje pravil posamezne igre.
Poleg spletnih igralnih avtomatov lahko slovenski igralci z nekaj kliki uživajo tudi v priljubljenih igrah s kartami in namiznih igrah. Večina slovenskih spletnih igralnic ima na voljo različne te naslove, ki jih poganjajo vodilni ponudniki, kot so Microgaming, Playtech in RTG. Nekatere med njimi imajo progresivne jackpote, druge pa fiksne ravni izplačil in klasične vmesnike.
Lokalni igralci lahko na teh spletnih platformah izvajajo plačila v evrih. Za zaščito svojih zasebnih podatkov lahko uporabijo tudi elektronske denarnice, kot sta Skrill ali Neteller. Poleg tega nekatere najboljše spletne igralnice v Sloveniji sprejemajo kriptovalute, kot je Bitcoin. Ta način plačevanja postaja vse bolj priljubljen, saj ponuja takojšnje transakcije in visoko stopnjo varnosti.
