Our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion
Our commitment to diversity and equality is a long-standing one. We believe arts organisations, museums, and libraries should ensure that their work draws on and reflects the full range of backgrounds and perspectives to be found in our society.
Disabled, D/deaf and/or neurodivergent people, those from Black, Asian and Ethnically Diverse backgrounds are under-represented in our workforce so we particularly encourage applications from people in these groups.
