Our commitment
Our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion is not merely a statement; we genuinely believe that it underpins our vision and it is with determination that we commit to our learning and improvement in this area and our positive impact.
We commit to:
1. Encourage equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace because it is good practice and makes business sense.
2. Create a working environment free of bullying, harassment, victimisation, and unlawful discrimination, promoting dignity and respect for all, and where individual differences and the contributions of all the team are recognised and valued.
3. Develop and support all colleagues about their rights and responsibilities under the equality, diversity, and inclusion policy. Responsibilities include all colleagues conducting themselves to help the organisation provide equal opportunities in employment, and prevent bullying, harassment, victimisation, and unlawful discrimination.
4. Take seriously complaints of bullying, agressions, harassment, victimisation and unlawful discrimination by fellow employees, customers, suppliers, visitors, the public and any others during Think Active’s business activities.
Consciously making a difference
As a charity and a Sport England System Partner we are conscious of ensuring best value and maximising the funding that we receive so that we truly make a difference to the people and places we serve.
We are residents at 1 Mill Street, a co-working space with a number of startups, charities and small businesses. The ethos is a charitable and philanthropic one, and we have accessed a community of similar minded people from a range of sectors based in a community that we serve.
Check out our Environmentally Friendly and Climate Conscious page for more about how we are consciously making a difference.
