Equality and Fairness<br />
Equality and<br />
Fairness<br />
The principles of equality and fairness are central to our vision<br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>Barnsley</strong>. They underpin both our understanding of "where<br />
we want to be" as well as "how we get there".<br />
If we are to successfully deliver on our key priorities and<br />
catalysts <strong>for</strong> change we must recognise that;<br />
• every section of the community needs to benefit from the<br />
growth of a 21st century economy and be involved in the<br />
21st century relationship between the community and the<br />
public sector, and that;<br />
• every section of the community must be empowered and<br />
encouraged to make its full contribution.<br />
This means understanding that some people have particular<br />
needs and face particular barriers which will have to be<br />
addressed if they are to be full partners in <strong>Barnsley</strong>’s future -<br />
contributing to its development and sharing in its benefits.<br />
As we develop the Action Plan <strong>for</strong> this <strong>Strategy</strong>, we will make<br />
sure that we identify the key challenges and opportunities<br />
associated with our priorities and catalysts, to enable this to<br />
happen <strong>for</strong> all sections of the community.<br />
