Equality and Diversity Statement
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Statement
At Positive Support For You CIC, we are committed to creating a culture where everyone is respected, included, and empowered — regardless of their background, identity or circumstances.
We believe in celebrating diversity and promoting equality in all aspects of our work. Whether you are a person we support, a family member, a colleague, or a partner organisation, you have the right to be treated fairly, with dignity and without discrimination.
Our Commitment
- We promote equal opportunities in employment, service delivery, leadership and governance.
- We support and celebrate people from all backgrounds, including those with protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010.
- We strive to remove barriers that prevent people from accessing care, fulfilling potential, or participating in community life.
- We embed inclusive practices into everything we do — from recruitment and training to support planning and communication.
Harmony Hub – Celebrating Difference
We run a dedicated inclusion group called the Harmony Hub, where staff, people we support, and community members come together to share lived experiences and celebrate what makes us unique. The Harmony Hub helps to shape our policies, raise awareness of inclusion topics, and promote allyship across the organisation.
Guided by Good Practice
Our approach is informed by national and local frameworks including:
- The Equality Act 2010
- The NHS Equality Delivery System (EDS2)
- Local authority equality, safeguarding, and commissioning standards
- The Public Sector Equality Duty
We also take proactive steps to address health inequalities affecting people with learning disabilities, autism, and complex needs.
Working Together
Equality, diversity, and inclusion are everyone’s responsibility. We value input from all members of our community and we welcome feedback, suggestions and challenges to help us continue learning and improving.
