Equality and Diversity

Active Sussex is fully committed to the principles of equality of opportunity and is responsible for ensuring that no job applicant, employee, volunteer, member or participant receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of age, gender, disability, race, ethnic origin, nationality, colour, parental or marital status, pregnancy, religious belief, class or social background, sexual preference or political belief.

Active Sussex will ensure that there will be open admission to all those who wish to work in partnership with Sussex County Sports Partnership Trust in all aspects of sport and leisure activities and that they are treated fairly.

Active Sussex is committed to achieving gender parity (with a minimum of 30% of each gender) and greater diversity generally on its board, including, but not limited to Black, Asian, minority ethnic, diversity, sexual preference and disability. We will ensure any board vacancies receive the widest possible coverage to guarantee that opportunities are seen and available to all.
