Equal Opportunities

We are committed to being a community where equality of opportunity is a reality for all students and staff. That means creating a positive environment in which students and staff are respected.

We aim to ensure that no-one in our university community will receive unfair or unlawful treatment due to race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origins, religion, creed, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, disability or age.

Landlords must therefore ensure that there is no discrimination in the provision and letting of accommodation and that all tenants are treated respectfully and fairly. Under the Race Relations Act and the Sex Discrimination Act it is unlawful to discriminate on the basis of race or sex.

Failure to comply with the university’s commitment to equal opportunities may result in owners / landlords being removed from the accommodation register.
