Equality and Diversity
Equality and Diversity at Scottish Borders Council
Scottish Borders Council views the Scottish Borders as a place where everyone matters, where everyone should have equal opportunities and where everyone should be treated with dignity and respect. As a council we want our services to be accessible to everyone irrespective of their age, disability, race, national or ethnic origin, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. We will endeavor to ensure that our services meet the needs of everyone who lives, works or visits the Scottish Borders and we will continue to work with our communities to ensure we can achieve this.
