Equality and diversity

• Equality framework

• We have worked with Cumbria County Council and the other five district councils in Cumbria on the Achieving Equality in Cumbria project.

• Equality objectives

• Our commitment to equality applies whether we are acting as an employer, service provider to local residents, visitors or as a partner to other organisations.

• Equality profile

• Eden's equality profile helps to provide services which meet people's needs. It is important to know and understand the make-up of Eden's population.

• Equal access to services

• All our customers have an equal right to access our services and we will treat them with respect, courtesy and dignity.

• Armed forces covenant

• By signing both the Cumbria and Eden armed forces covenant we show that we will seek out ways to help and assist people from the armed forces.
