Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Wanstead and Woodford Migrant Support recognises that we live in a society where discrimination still operates to the disadvantage of many groups in society.

We believe that all persons should have equal rights to recognition of their human dignity, and to have equal opportunities to be educated, to work, receive services and to participate in society.

Wanstead and Woodford Migrant Support is committed to the promotion of equal opportunities through the way we manage the organisation and provide services to the community.

We encourage participation from those with lived experience at all levels of the organisation.
