We are committed to ensuring that Equality and Diversity is reflected in our strategy, mission and vision.

 

Through our core values we make sure that everything we do helps:

​

• Eliminates unlawful discrimination, harassment, victimisation and other conduct prohibited by the Equality Act 2010.

• Advance the equality of opportunity between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.

• Foster good relations between people who share a protected characteristic and those who do not.

 

As part of this commitment we aim to:

​

• Remove or minimise disadvantages experienced by people due to their protected characteristics.

• Take measures to fulfil the needs of individuals from protected groups where they are different from the needs of other persons.

• Support and encourage individuals with protected characteristics to participate in the public life at EQUIP especially where participation is disproportionately lower.
