Equalities in Tower Hamlets

The council is committed to ensuring that equality is at the heart of everything we do, from the money we spend, the people we employ to the services we provide.

Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths and we work with our partners to provide accessible and responsive services that enable us to improve outcomes for local people.

By ensuring we meet local needs it helps us deliver value for money, improve customer services and our reputation, and enables us to empower local people to lead fulfilling lives.

Equality in Tower Hamlets is first and foremost addressed through the Tower Hamlets Plan and Strategic Plan which set the strategic direction for the council and its partners.

Equality is embedded throughout these plans and is a key driver for everything we do.

The Corporate Equalities Plan 2024-26 details the council's actions to meet the equality objectives of the Strategic Plan 2022-26.
