Equalities

We, as a council, want to make sure we treat everyone equally regardless of disability, race, age, sex, sexuality or religion.

As part of this commitment, we work to understand people's differences and value them. If, in any of your dealings with us, you feel we have not treated you politely and with respect because of your disability, race, age, sex, sexuality or religion, please tell us so we can improve our services.

You can write to us at

We are also currently screening all our policies, procedures and services across the Council to make sure they are fair to everyone and don't disadvantage any particular group.

These screenings are called Equality Impact Assessments (EIA). You can read the assessments we have already completed below.
