Orchard Surgery recognises that many people in our society experience discrimination or lack of opportunity for reasons that are not fair. These include race, religion, creed, colour, national and ethnic origin, political beliefs, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability (including mental illness), HIV status, responsibility for dependants, geographical area, social class, income level and criminal record.

Orchard Surgery is committed to a policy of equality of opportunity which respects the identity, rights and value of each individual, be they a patient or a member of staff.

Please make the practice manager aware using our Contact the Practice form if you have any concerns that equality and diversity issues have not been respected.
