Dear Dave Edwards

Thank you for your request for information that we received on the 30th of November 2024.

Your request
Please confirm for 2023, what budget was allocated to diversity, equality and inclusion efforts. This could include for events, programmes, training and so on.

Please also confirm what the actual total spend was for this financial year.

Our response
Social Services (Children's)
No budget/no spend
Social Services (Adult's)
No budget/no spend
While they do not have a budget or specific spend, it can be argued that equality, diversity and inclusion is central to all Adult Social Care activities. The whole point of supporting a person to achieve their personal goals is to provide equality of opportunity so the person can be included in their home, community or workplace. The same can be said of Children's Services
Learning and Skills
Spend - £1,707
Corporate Resources
Budget - £11,325
Spend - £3,997
SRS
No budget/no spend
Neighbourhood Services
To follow

We can also confirm expenditure of £530 in relation to International Women's Day. The cost is funded by donations.
