Equal Opportunities Statement

As an association for mental health, we recognise the existence of discrimination. We are committed to implementing policies which ensure equality of opportunity.

We are actively committed to challenging discrimination, particularly in regard to race, colour and ethnic or national origin, class, gender and domestic circumstances, disability, sexuality, age or religious belief.

We recognise that people whose voice is not heard, who have fewer services available to them and poorer access to jobs and education, are at a disadvantage.

We shall, through our selection criteria and procedures, ensure that we are not unfairly discriminating in our employment and management practices or in the services we provide.

We acknowledge that both as an organisation and as individuals we have a responsibility to put our policy into practice.

We believe that for the success of this policy self-awareness training, education and support will be required.

We will continually review and monitor the effectiveness of our equal opportunities practices.

We welcome the enrichment and cultural diversity that follows as a natural consequence of this policy.
