Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI)
Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI)
We aim to create a fair and inclusive environment for our customers with Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at the heart of what we do.
What's this all about?
We have created a short-term EDI plan, this will enable us to set a strong foundation for us to build upon, and allow us to measure success.
What is in the plan?
- We have introduced an EDI course as standard for all our colleagues.
- We're building relationships with local charities, organisations and other housing associations.
- We're making improvements to our customer data to reduce gaps in our knowledge.
- We have a recruitment strategy which focuses on recruiting
diverse talent.
How will this impact me?
- Through building relationships and improving our customer data, we will gain a better understanding of the community we serve and can meet our customers' needs.
- By improving the learning and development of our colleagues, we will deliver a more inclusive service to our customers.
LGBTQ+ Housing Pledge
“Everyone deserves to feel safe, seen and celebrated, whether they’re walking through the doors of their own home or into our workplace.
This pledge is our commitment to our LGBTQ+ customers that they will never have to question whether they belong in the spaces we help create. It’s a commitment to our team that this is a place where you can show up as your full self, every single day.”
