Project Respect?is the MND Association’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy ? and?everyone?can help shape it.
As part of the Association?s ongoing commitment to increase equality, inclusion and diversity, a series of workshops were held across the country to talk about the issues. Judy Keay, AV and committee member of East Kent Group of the MND Association and Katy Styles, campaigns contact and committee member went on the 3rd September to one of these workshops.
Many issues were discussed about equality of provision, equality of volunteer experience and the need to increase our volunteer base. We mentioned ways of attracting new volunteers and hoped to share practice as well as increasing our offer to new groups with literature about how people could volunteer.
It will be interesting to see how this work progresses over the next five years.
