Diversity Living Services

Diversity means valuing an individual's right to identify with race, colour, gender, age, religious belief, ethnicity, cultural background, marital or family status, economic circumstance, human capacity, expression of thought and sexual orientation as well as their experiences, skills and capabilities. Diversity values, enriches and strengthens the contributions and rights of all communities. Diversity contribute to making more informed and targeted decisions and services, drawing on a wide range of ideas, cultures, experiences, and approaches. We believe that everyone should have an equal opportunity to improve their life prospects and wellbeing but some of us face barriers to achieving this, due to such factors as discrimination, poverty, poor mental or physical health, family and cultural constraints, lack of skills, lack of awareness of options open to them. This motivated us to establish DLS, so that we can work to help BAMER people in in UK overcome these disadvantages and to ensure they have a voice. We also believe that increasing equality has a positive impact on society at large and that every member within it stands to gain from it.
