Equality and Diversity

Equality and Diversity

Our aims for sport and physical activity equality:

We recognise the value of sport & physical activity and the important role it plays in enhancing quality of life for the people in Norfolk. We are committed to ensuring that opportunities are accessible to all those who wish to get, or stay involved in physical activity and sport, regardless of their personal circumstances or demographics. We are committed to ensuring that everything we do, both internally and externally encompasses relevant aspects of Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI).

We have a dedicated Equality Policy that shapes the ethos of our approach. Additionally we have a detailed Diversity & Inclusion Action Plan (DIAP) that provides tangible actions that we will be accountable for EDI aspects of our work. This plan is a live document that has been approved through a robust process of review with Sport England and aims to deliver on our ambitions to be an organisation that champions inclusive activities and provision, celebrates and proactively promotes the value of diversity in our work and encourages a culture of equality internally and with partners.

We recognise that as we strive to address inequalities by using physical activity that all individuals and organisations in our sector are responsible to challenge discrimination and promote inclusion. Where inequalities exist, we must recognise these and take steps to address them. This is fundamental to the success of our work.
