Equality and diversity - the Great Places approach

Great Places Housing Group operates in many neighbourhoods across the north, working with customers from all sorts of backgrounds.

This diversity is a strength - but only if we manage to involve and engage people fully.

Our approach to equality is summed up in the phrase 'different but not indifferent'. As an employer and a provider of housing, we recognise that everyone is different. We also know that having a diverse workforce helps us to understand and meet customers' needs.

See our page of useful documents to find out more. 

Our aim is to ensure everyone has equal and fair access to our services, regardless of race, colour, ethnic origin, religion, nationality, cultural background, sexual orientation, gender, disability, age, class, appearance, responsibility for dependants, being HIV positive or having AIDS ... or any other characteristics which may unfairly affect a person's opportunities in life.

We also work to promote good relations between people of different backgrounds.
