Warwick District Council has a diverse community and we accept that discrimination is a major barrier to providing a fair and just society. We acknowledge that there are some people who are prevented from taking part fully in the life of our community for a variety of reasons. This may include unfair treatment and exclusion on the basis of none or several of the following factors: age, race, gender, disability, faith, language, skin colour, sexual orientation, socio-economic background or some other personal characteristic or circumstance.
The Council’s vision and commitment is to ensure equality of opportunity for all, including equality of access to those services we provide. In serving our community and in valuing the contribution of our work force, we aim to improve the quality of life and well being of the population. Warwick District Council's Equality & Diversity Scheme (248kb, PDF) sets out the council’s position. The scheme has been developed to reflect continual changes in the way we work including new laws, our review of performance in diversity and equality and the ambitions in our Corporate Strategy. The scheme has currently published in draft as it has recently been updated and is awaiting consideration by Executive in Feb 2010.
