Equal opportunities

We aim to embrace diversity, promote equal opportunities and eliminate unlawful discrimination in all areas of our work. We are also committed to ensuring that people have fair and open access to our services.

We welcome applications from all people irrespective of age; disability; gender reassignment; pregnancy and maternity; marriage and civil partnership; race; religion or belief; sex or sexual orientation.

As part of your application, we ask that you complete our equality and diversity monitoring form to assist us with the implementation of our Equality and Diversity Action Plan. Equality and diversity are core values and we are committed to being fair in all of our working processes.

We also ensure our contractors and consultants have a commitment to equalities and comply with relevant health and safety, employment and equal opportunities legislation.
