Vibrancy and diversity are two of Stoke‑on‑Trent's greatest assets. A city founded on creative endeavour should value and celebrate the multitude of voices, ideas and identities that shape its culture. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture where all staff feel valued, listened to, supported and able to do their work to the best of their abilities at all times.

Our approach to equality and diversity is an invitation to all our communities to work with and for us so we can continue to improve how we deliver services residents need.
