Affinity are committed to:

Ensuring people’s differences are celebrated, understood, and respected.
Promoting equality and inclusion as a core value across the service, with our children and young people, foster carers, staff, and wider communities in which we serve.
Actively challenge discriminatory behaviour, assumptions and stereotypes of others.

Developing a culture of learning which endeavors to understand the uniqueness of others in respect to race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, age, religious beliefs, political beliefs and neuro diversity.
