Today we look at another one of our plans for 2026-27: bringing our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy to life.
Children’s Hearings Scotland is built on a simple but powerful belief: children, young people and families should be listened to, respected and supported.
Our EDI work helps make sure this happens by:
- supporting diverse volunteers
- recognising different needs
- keeping lived experience at the centre of hearings
Brittany Williamson, our National Wellbeing Manager, says: 'This year, we want to update how we think and talk about inclusion of our community, our team, and of families in hearings, by looking at ‘inclusion-by-design’ in all that we do at CHS.'
By working in different ways with our national team and volunteers, we aim to:
- value diversity
- respond to the needs of the people we serve
- build an inclusive culture in our work for children’s hearings
Join us again tomorrow for our final day of this series.
