Our Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

At the Netherton Feelgood Factory, we want everyone who walks through our doors to feel welcome, respected, and valued. We are proud to be a place where people from all backgrounds can come together, take part, and feel supported.

What We Believe

We believe that everyone should have equal access to our services, activities, and opportunities—no matter their age, disability, race, religion or belief, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, pregnancy or maternity status, or marital status.

We also recognise that people may face barriers because of things like their health, income, caring responsibilities, or where they live. We work hard to remove these barriers wherever we can.

How We Promote Equality

We are committed to:

• Treating everyone fairly and with respect

• Challenging discrimination, bullying, or harassment

• Making our services and activities accessible to all

• Listening to our community and adapting our work to meet diverse needs

• Providing reasonable adjustments for disabled people

• Creating a safe, inclusive environment for staff, volunteers, and service users

If You Have Concerns

If you ever feel you have been treated unfairly or have witnessed discrimination at the Feelgood Factory, please speak to a member of staff or a trustee. We will listen, take your concerns seriously, and act appropriately.

Our Ongoing Commitment

Equality, diversity, and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do. We regularly review our policies and practices to make sure we continue to offer a welcoming and supportive environment for everyone in our community.
