Diverse Staff Network

About the Diverse Staff Network

All staff are welcome to join the network and support their mission in helping the Council become an employer of choice for people from diverse communities.

As part of this mission, the group aims to: 

• Have a positive impact for colleagues from black, Asian and Ethnic Minority communities in the workplace
• Raise overall awareness and visibility of its work
• Provide a social and supportive environment

Establishing the network is a stride toward starting the conversation about race equality in the Council in a constructive and open way and demonstrating that uncomfortable conversations can lead to real change.
