Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Equity, Diversity and Inclusion are essential to our organisation and our vision is to make them part of our every day at St Oswald’s Hospice.

Our Commitment to Inclusion and Belonging

Everyone deserves dignity, safety, and the freedom to be themselves. We are committed to creating a culture where everyone – whether they work with us, volunteer, support us, or receive care – feels safe, respected, and able to be themselves. Equity, diversity, and inclusion are core values that guide our actions every day. They’re woven into our strategy, our services, and how we treat one another. 

We’re proud that our work reflects the diverse communities we serve, and we actively celebrate the voices and experiences that shape who we are. This means challenging discrimination, removing barriers to inclusion, and doing all we can to make sure everyone feels they belong. 

Because compassionate, expert care can only happen when people feel seen, heard, and valued. And whether you’re with us now or in the future – you are welcome here.

St Oswald’s Hospice is a proud member of ‘The Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion’ and a Disability Confident Leader.
