Equal Opportunities
We are committed to the fair treatment of our staff, potential staff, regardless of race, gender, religion/belief, sexual orientation, age, pregnancy/maternity, marital or civil partnership status, physical/mental disability, responsibilities for dependants or offending background.

The information you give on this form will help us ensure equality in our services to you. We recognise that you may regard some of this information as personal and we have, therefore, included an option in most questions for ‘prefer not to say’.

All information that we collect in relation to equality and diversity will be treated confidentially in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and will be stored within the Applicant Tracking System. Access to this information will be restricted to staff involved in the processing and monitoring of this data. It will be used to provide statistical information only. In completing the form below, you consent to us using your data for this purpose.

If you have a medical condition, the Equality Act 2010 requires employers to make reasonable adjustments to the job content or working environment. To achieve this, we need to know whether you are covered. Definition of Disability: “A physical or mental impairment which has a substantial and long-term effect on a person’s ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities in a non-work environment.”

There are 6 million carers in the United Kingdom and nearly one in eight workers are carers. With an ageing population and an expected increase of 60% of carers in the next 30 years, we would like to monitor the number of people with caring responsibilities.
