LGBT Youth Scotland Charter
Active Schools Renfrewshire have been awarded the LGBT Youth Scotland Bronze Charter. This certificate recognises our Active Schools teams’ ongoing commitment to making LGBTQ+ young people feel safe, supported, and included.
Being accredited with this LGBT Charter enables us to send our customers, staff, and stakeholders a positive message, with confidence, that OneRen and Active Schools Renfrewshire are a champion of LGBTQ+ inclusion.
This charter journey began in September 2023 and a variety of standards were assessed to attain the award. This included 70 members of the team completing LGBTQ+ awareness training, online awareness campaigns being undertaken during Pride month, and an update to OneRen HR policies to ensure inclusion and recognition of the LGBTQ+ community.
