Equality Schemes and Impact Assessments

The Council has adopted a number of equality schemes designed to ensure equal treatment and opportunities for the people of the Vale, in both service delivery and employment. We also assess the equality impact of our major policies and practices.

 

These schemes cover the areas of race, disability and gender, and have been developed in consultation with service users, employees and senior managers.

 

For any further information please contact the Equalities team.
