Wysing has enjoyed a period of sustained growth over the past ten years: delivering capital and infrastructure improvements; securing inclusion into Arts Council England’s National Portfolio; and establishing strong partnerships including with the Plus Tate network.
Wysing is committed to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and we have a dedicated Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy and action plan within our current Business Plan 2018-22. The action plan sets out measurable actions for us in areas such as our programme, audience, staffing and governance.
As part of our work in this direction, we would like to ensure that new Trustees bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the organisation. We are particularly keen to recruit a Trustee who has lived experience of being a neurodivergent or disabled person.
Wysing actively seeks to give a platform to voices that are perceived to be marginalised or under-represented. We are a Disability Confident accredited employer, have invested in Mental Health Awareness and training, and have implemented a range of development, including Unconscious Bias training, within our staff team.
