Principles of excellence: Promoting equality
These examples demonstrate how people of all backgrounds can be supported to both access and live well in housing with care and support. High-quality, personalised and accessible housing with care and support should be easy to access for everyone, regardless of their age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or disability. Promoting equality also includes equal access, choice and quality for lower income groups and those living in deprived areas.
