Equality and diversity

The University of Westminster is committed to supporting diversity and equal opportunities in its dealings with applicants, students, staff and the public.

We are fully committed to creating a stimulating and supportive learning and working environment based on mutual respect and trust to assist staff and students to reach their full potential, regardless of race, nationality, ethnic or national origins, marital status, disability, gender, religion or belief, sexual orientation or any other similarly irrelevant factor.

Stonewall Diversity Champion

The University of Westminster is part of Stonewall’s Diversity Champions programme. The programme is Britain's good practice employers' forum on lesbian, gay and bisexual equality.

Stonewall is the lesbian, gay and bisexual equality charity. The Diversity Champions programme promotes a good working environment for all existing and potential staff and students and helps to ensure equal treatment for those who are lesbian, gay or bisexual.

An open environment, where sexual orientation is embedded as part of our cultural richness, promotes an ideal setting for each individual to fully thrive within our organisation. We recognise that staff perform better when they can be themselves.

Our LGBT Network is dedicated to attracting, supporting and developing our Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender employees to ensure they are feeling confident to be themselves at work.Recognised by Stonewall for it's diversity
