No shortage of BAME-only charities.
I assume that they were talking about charities as a whole as opposed to their own.

I think that what they mean is that it's not enough to appoint black employees, but that these BAME employees have to have a black mentality/outlook as opposed to thinking the way that white people do.

I've heard black people describe such people as a cocunut or a bounty (after the chocolate bar) ie Brown on the outside, but white on the inside.

This could be viewed as attempting to marginalise the views of people that aren't the same as their own to suit their own agenda, or do they have a point?
