There is a continuous stream of research, pilot schemes and evaluation of practice in the areas of equality, diversity, social inclusion, health and physical fitness. This can be hard to track for non-specialist organisations.
Sporting Equals monitors current thinking and the evidence-base for best practice in the UK and beyond. We can support organisations to meet their legal obligations, and to go beyond compliance to genuine corporate social responsibility.
We also offer a range of free, downloadable tools, reports and guidelines:
