Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
As a disabilities charity we take an assertive view on inclusion and diversity. We have worked hard in the last two years to diversify our board, workforce and those accessing our services.
We have increased leadership across the charity that reflects the communities we operate in and that we work with. We have fully revise all operational policy and governance to ensure we are meeting both our legal as well as our own quality standards in terms of inclusion and fairness across our business.
We have been independently audited and quality assured by a number of independent and contracting organisations to ensure we continue to meet those commiemtents. And we review annually through client and staff questionnaires in addition to our values based performance evaluation process how well we are doing against our corporate benchmarks.
