At Zest of Mind, we believe that diversity strengthens us and inclusion empowers everyone to thrive.
Our Vision
We are committed to creating an environment where equality, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do. Our aim is to be truly representative of all sections of society and to ensure that every employee, client, learner and partner feels respected, valued and able to give their best.
What We Stand For
We recognise that diverse skills, experiences and perspectives strengthen our learning environment, enhance our services and drive innovation across all aspects of our work. We actively oppose all forms of discrimination, harassment and bullying, and we work continuously to remove barriers that prevent people from fully participating in our services and opportunities.
Our Commitments
We do not discriminate on the grounds of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, socio-economic background, neurodiversity, family circumstances, or any other characteristic that makes someone who they are.
We actively promote:
- Fair and transparent recruitment, promotion and development opportunities
- Reasonable adjustments to ensure accessibility for all
- An inclusive culture free from bullying, harassment and victimisation
- Partnerships with diverse communities and underrepresented groups
- Accessible services, communications and facilities that meet everyone’s needs
We hold ourselves accountable through regular monitoring, staff and client consultation, and transparent reporting on our progress.
Our Promise
Zest of Mind seeks to become an organisation that empowers the disadvantaged, promotes good relations between all groups, and is representative of its local, national and global community. We are on a continuous journey of learning and improvement, and we welcome feedback from all our stakeholders to help us achieve this vision.
