Equality standard

Since 2000, we have also been working to the national Improvement & Development Agency (I&DeA) Equality Standard to eliminate all discrimination, including gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, race, religion and belief and social exclusion.

We have reached level 3 of the standard and are working towards level 4.
