Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
We actively support diversity and inclusion and ensure that all our employees are valued and treated with dignity and respect. We want to encourage everyone in our business to reach their potential.
We recognise that discrimination is unacceptable and although equality of opportunity has been a long-standing feature of our employment practices and procedure, we have made the decision to adopt a formal policy. Breaches of the policy will lead to disciplinary proceedings and, if appropriate, disciplinary action up to and including dismissal.
The aim of the policy is to ensure no job applicant, employee or worker is discriminated against either directly or indirectly on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy or maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation.
This year we took the step of publishing an EDI audit of our staff and Trustees as part of our annual report. We believe this is an important step in transparency and continuing to diversify our staff team and board.
We publicly advertise and recruit people with lived experience to join our grant panels so that our communities are involved in decisions on how our grants are distributed.
