EQUALITY MONITORING
The West Midlands and Warwickshire is a vibrant and diverse region.  It is home to so many communities of different heritage backgrounds, cultures, and faiths. It has rural and urban areas, includes one of the youngest cities in Europe, and around a fifth of people are living with a physical or mental condition that affects their daily lives.

To ensure our decision process is as equitable as possible, we would like you to answer a few questions about the makeup of your organisation's leadership team. This will help us to identify any potential gaps and make sure our reach reflects the diversity of the West Midlands and Warwickshire. If you don’t already know the makeup of your leadership team, finding out might be a useful and interesting exercise for your organisation.

This information will not be used to assess your application.
