Equal Opportunities Policy

At Wansbeck Riverside Caravan Park we recognise that discrimination is unacceptable and equality of opportunity has been a long standing feature of our employment practices and procedures. Wansbeck Riverside Caravan Park provide equal opportunities and are committed to the principle of equality regardless of race, colour, ethnic region, religious belief, gender, age, or disability and to ensuring that all employees and applicants have equality of opportunity.

Wansbeck Riverside Caravan Park will tackle barriers to participation and create a culture in which equal opportunities and equal treatment are a priority for all staff and users. In the recruitment, training, pay, and management of staff, and in all of our day-to-day work with both colleagues and users, we seek to create an environment where attitudes and biases that hinder the progress of individuals and groups are dismantled and where we work together in mutual respect and tolerance.
