Your Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Champions

Equality Champions promote and communicate equality, diversity and inclusivity initiatives including key events, news, training opportunities, policy developments and best practice. They also act as visible allies and champions for EDI issues at a local level as well as being key conduits between their department or service and the wider university on EDI issues.
