The Council aims to develop an inclusive society and is committed to ensuring all council services are accessible and that their provision is free from prejudice and unlawful discrimination and sensitive to the needs of all local communities.
Our approach to equality and diversity is to focus on people who access our services by looking at their whole identity and recognising and valuing that each individual resident, visitor, partner, service provider, service user and employee is unique. The Council is also committed to promoting a community and organisational culture that fully respects and values the diverse differences and needs. The Council promotes equal opportunities and encourages good race and community relations.
This can be seen through the Council's Equality and Diversity scheme 2008-2011
