Equal Opportunities Statement The British Youth Council is committed to the implementation of Equal Opportunities throughout its work. In its meetings, activities, services and as an employer, no person shall be discriminated against. This shall be regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, national or ethnic origin, physical, sensory or learning disability, political or religious beliefs, responsibilities for dependants, marital status, socio-economic background, HIV status, trades union activity, migrant status or on any other grounds that cannot be justified through the policy of the council. The British Youth Council affirms that it has a role in combating discrimination throughout society, as all forms of discrimination form a barrier to participation. It also calls upon its member organisations to actively address and positively support these issues within their own structures. BYC will extend its equal opportunities statement to apply to all events attended by a representative of BYC. Registered Charity No. 1123224.
