This Pride Month, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve signed up to the HouseProud Pledge! This initiative demonstrates our commitment to creating a safe and inclusive environment for all our LGBTQ+ residents.
Why is the HouseProud Pledge Important?
A home should be a safe haven where everyone feels comfortable expressing themselves authentically. Sadly, LGBTQ+ residents often face discrimination in housing.
The HouseProud Pledge tackles this issue head-on. It provides a framework for social housing providers like ourselves to work with residents and actively promote LGBTQ+ inclusion.
Here’s what we’re doing:
Empowering Residents: We’ll establish clear terms outlining how LGBTQ+ residents can contribute and shape our organisation.
Educating Our Staff: We’ll provide specific training on LGBTQ+ issues to ensure all staff members are equipped to support our residents with sensitivity and understanding.
Promoting Visibility: We’ll champion LGBTQ+ inclusion through internal and external communication channels, celebrating diversity and fostering a welcoming atmosphere.
This is just the beginning! We’re committed to ongoing collaboration with our LGBTQ+ residents to make our housing a place where everyone feels truly at home.
