Social inclusion and community cohesion

Our role in the council

The Social Inclusion Unit is responsible for leading on all equality, diversity, community cohesion, financial and social inclusion issues relating to Plymouth City Council and the citizens of Plymouth.

The unit has specific responsibilities and expertise in relation to the protected characteristics of:

  • Age
  • Faith, religion and belief
  • Disability
  • Gender
  • Gender reassignment
  • Pregnancy and maternity
  • Marriage and civil partnership
  • Race
  • Sexual orientation

Our services are delivered with our diverse communities in mind. By working with officers throughout the Council and with our partners we support and advise on cultural and organisational change both internally and externally.

Our vision

"Plymouth City Council is committed to valuing, promoting and celebrating equality, diversity and community cohesion in order to ensure that our residents, employees and visitors enjoy an outstanding quality of life. We are committed to ensuring that people in our multi-cultural city have equal access to high quality services and the right to live, learn and work, free from unlawful discrimination. Our commitment to equalities applies to everything we do in the Council and with our citizens. It is at the core of our work with partners to make Plymouth a vibrant waterfront city of the world."

Our team

We work towards making sure that significant social exclusion no longer exists in our multi-cultural city, this includes:

  • Eliminate discrimination and tackle prejudice
  • Advance equality of opportunity
  • Foster good relations and promote understanding
  • Meet the needs of people within the protected characteristics
  • Encourage participation in public life/activities

We will play a major part in meeting the challenge of Plymouth becoming one of Europe’s most vibrant waterfront cities where everyone enjoys an outstanding quality of life.
