Equality, diversity and inclusion

We are committed to giving fair and equal treatment to people

This is irrespective of age, gender, disability, race, caring responsibilities, religion/belief or sexual orientation. We will challenge unfair treatment and discrimination.

Our EDI plan sets out how we employ a diverse profile of great people who are representative of the communities we serve. This helps us provide equal access to great services for our customers.

Our ambition and approach

Our ambition is to achieve the broadest sense of diversity, extending beyond the statutory duties to include diversity of thought, education and caring responsibilities as we recognise that this adds strength to our work. Our purpose is to provide great homes, great services and develop great people at Coastline and in our communities – all underpinned by great foundations.

One part of our great foundations relates to strong governance, and our shared values below, that shape our culture, to:

Put our customers first
Be open, honest and accountable
Strive to be the best
Value each other

We work with a diverse range of communities, safeguarding some of the most vulnerable and socially excluded people in society. We respect and value differences and recognise that diversity enriches our communities and strengthens our collective resources and effectiveness as One Coastline.
