Accreditations

We are an accredited Living Wage employer, which means we believe that our staff deserve a wage which meets everyday needs and we pay at least the Living Wage rate to all of our staff.

We’ve signed the Mindful Employer Charter to demonstrate our commitment to better mental health at work.

We are a proud supporter of the Greater Manchester Good Employment Charter. We are committed to making a difference in our employees’ lives by elevating employment standards in the key characteristics covered in the Charter: secure work, flexible work, real living wage, excellent people management, workplace engagement and voice, excellent recruitment and progression, and a healthy and productive workplace. #GoodEmployment

We’ve pledged our organisation’s commitment to make staff vacancies accessible to any applicant with appropriate skills and experience and not to require a degree unless it’s technically essential for the role (eg accountancy or nursing).

We support the Show The Salary campaign to address pay gaps and inequity in the charity sector, and we will only advertise roles that state a salary. We encourage our members to support the campaign.

We are taking all of the core actions to be a Disability Confident Leader.
