Equality, diversity and human rights
Northumberland Care Trust aims to be a leading organisation for promoting equality and diversity in the North East. We believe that any modern organisation has a duty to reflect all the communities and people it serves, in both the way it deliver services and in employment. All forms of discrimination must also be tackled. We need to remove inequality and make sure there are no barriers to health and wellbeing.
Our vision is to have a culture of fairness, equality and repect for diversity that is evident to everyone.
