Equality, diversity and inclusion in Adult Social Care
Our equality, diversity and inclusion objectives 2024-2027
How we prioritise what to do first
As a county council our capacity and our budget is limited. This means we must think carefully about what will deliver the best results. We prioritise actions based on:
- Our legal responsibilities - gaps in compliance
- Independent reviews - for example, the Care Quality Commission and safeguarding reviews
- Data about how people use our services and any inequalities they experience - and what will achieve the greatest impact
- Views of different people and communities
Our objectives
- Objective 1: Promote race equality and eliminate racism across Adult Social Care workforce, services, and communities
- Objective 2: Provide services, information and environments that can be accessed, understood, and used to the greatest extent possible by all disabled people
- Objective 3: Promote equality for our LGBTQ+ service users and colleagues
- Objective 4: Deliver our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) transformation plans in response to external inspections, peer and safeguarding reviews
