EQuIP in the Community

Diversity makes our community stronger, and in Warwickshire EQuIP works alongside a huge number of different groups to improve our connections, understanding and cohesion.

Community

Our Warwickshire Community

Warwickshire is a county full of diversity. At EQuIP our aim is to ensure that every part of our community is represented, confident, proud and is fully included into our society.

Engagement

Community Engagement & Promoting Integration

EQuIP’s main focus is connecting and communicating with the groups and individuals we serve.

Understanding the concerns of these groups is the cornerstone of our organisation, so we regularly consult and engage with different groups and people in the county to find out what is important to them. We hold one-to-one discussions, group meetings, surveys, workshops, conferences and social events to find out what people need to lead safe and happy lives.

Integration
