WDHSCP Equalities Group

The equalities group aims are to

• Build understanding of the common issues and interests shared by communities and protected groups, across all members of the forum
• Build understanding, tackle prejudice and foster good relations between protected groups.
• To act as a joint consultation and involvement group on equality and fairness, between community equality groups and voluntary, public sector organisations, and positively influence policies and practice
• Help develop the overall equalities agenda in the WD area, recognising that equality and fairness is a mainstream issue
• Act as a shared ‘critical friend’ to all parties
• Encourage and support more diverse membership of community groups and wider participation in general
