Making a fairer, more equal Hounslow
Hounslow Council has committed to transform the opportunities and life-chances of communities in the borough’s 30 most disadvantaged neighbourhoods.
A Fairer, More Equal Hounslow - its new strategy to improve equality, diversity and inclusion - sets out an ambitious approach to target policies and funding to the areas which need them most to thrive.
Alongside the focus on 30 Equality Opportunity Areas, the strategy identifies a range of other measures to reduce inequalities across the borough, regardless of where people live. Many of these are targeted to support people who are currently disadvantaged because of their disability, age, ethnicity, gender, sexuality or faith.
The strategy and its action plan was co-designed through extensive engagement last year with residents, businesses, community groups and public sector partners, with more than 1500 people sharing their views.
