    It is important to us that we have a diverse workforce, representative of the communities we serve.

    Equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) to us means colleagues living our values, dedicated to doing the right thing and exercising good judgement.

    This will encourage a culture where all can thrive, acknowledging that everyone is different; what matters to us is that everyone can come to work and feel comfortable to be themselves.

    We will ensure that our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible, and we will interview applicants with a disability if they meet the essential criteria for a role.

    We will also support existing colleagues with a disability or long-term health condition enabling them to stay in work, making reasonable adjustments if necessary
