Diversity

We welcome service users, volunteers and staff from all ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

Values underpinning our work:

that older people are all individuals of equal worth irrespective of their gender, marital status, race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, disability, sexual orientation, religion or age
that all older people should be treated with dignity and respect
that Age UK Exeter strives to combat discrimination in all forms.

listen and respond to the wants and needs of all older people in Exeter
be aware of the diversity of our service users, staff and volunteers and seek ways to better reflect the full range of people in our local community
find ways of making Age UK Exeter a positive choice of contact for all older people in the city
engage with minority groups in the city to inform our own service development and that of others
work to ensure that older people from minority groups receive a positive and informed response from our staff, volunteers and service users
promote these values with other organisations with whom we work.

We welcome lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, trans-gender, intersex and questioning people and have links with the local Intercom Trust.
