Equality, Diversity, Inclusion & Equity

Castlefield Gallery is a female-led organisation, one that strives to be genuinely representative of the communities we serve. We are a purpose-led organisation. We actively set out to address the imbalances we see in our sector and beyond.

We are committed to equitable practice and the promotion of equal opportunities in all aspects of our work, including management, employment practices with paid workers and volunteers, access to services and service provision. Castlefield Gallery fully supports the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion.

We recognise that groups and individuals in society can be disadvantaged due to discrimination directed against them, by both direct and indirect discrimination. We aim to remove any barriers, bias or discrimination that prevents individuals or groups from realising their full potential and to develop an organisational culture that positively values diversity.

Castlefield Gallery is committed to equality of opportunity, and applications from individuals are encouraged regardless of race, disability, sex, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion or belief, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, caring responsibilities, or trade union activity. Castlefield Gallery’s Equality Policy is underpinned by the Equality Act (2010) which provides a legal framework to protect people from discrimination, harassment and victimisation in the workplace and wider society.
