We’re on a mission! A mission to transform Empowerment into a truly diverse organisation. In our Vision, Mission and Values document, ‘This is Empowerment’, we state the following:

Empowerment will:

Never discriminate against others because of who they are.

And that we:

Welcome diversity… being different is good and should be celebrated

Transforming ourselves into a diverse organisation is for us not some tokenistic tick box exercise, Empowerment will be at its best when we are a diverse family. However, we have to admit that we are on a journey to achieving that and that we’re not there yet.

As part of that journey we are busy working towards applying for the Lancashire LGBT Quality Mark (https://lancslgbt.org.uk/quality-mark/) We will keep you posted on our progress, but as an organisation we will not stop until LGBT people in Blackpool and the Fylde Coast know that Empowerment is on their side and will be alongside them on the path to justice!
