About Runnymede Council

Equality

As well as eliminating discrimination, public bodies like the Council are also required to consider how they may advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations between different groups and sectors of the community as they carry out their functions.

In order to enable us to meet our duties and to integrate these into normal working practices we have introduced a practice of assessing the impacts that our services, functions and policies may have on the various protected characteristic groups.

The Council's equality policy and equality objectives provide an overview of the current equality legislation as well as a summary of the Council's vision in this respect.  These were formally adopted by the Council on 25 October 2012.
