Equal Opportunities

We acknowledge and regret that, in society, some groups of people and individuals are treated unfairly. This can be based on disability, race, ethnic origin, sex, nationality, religion, age, marital status and sexual orientation.

We are determined that through our services we will provide equal opportunities in housing and employment.

Please use the links below to see our overall policy on equality, and our aims and plans relating to our services for black, minority ethnic people.

We will also be reviewing our services to ensure that we are being fair to other groups of people. Our findings and proposed actions will be added to this website. We will also be providing reports about our performance in achieving our plans.
