Equalities
The Reaching Out: Linking In (RO: LI) project funded by the BIG lottery closed in June 2011. One of the lasting legacies of the project is The Equalities Impact Assessment Toolkit.
The Equality Act 2010 provides a new legislative framework to protect the rights of individuals and advance equality of opportunity for all. It replaces existing anti-discrimination laws with a single act. Voluntary organisations, when they are providers of goods, facilities or services have the same responsibilities under the Equalities Act as any other organisation.
