We recognise the positive value of diversity, promoting equality and fairness, and challenging discrimination.

​
We recognise that people with different backgrounds, skills, attitudes and experiences bring fresh ideas and perceptions, and we wish to encourage and harness these differences to make our services more relevant and accessible.
We will not discriminate or tolerate discriminatory behaviour on the grounds of race, colour, sex, gender identity (transgender), disability, nationality, national or ethnic origin, religion or belief, marital/partnership or family status, caring responsibilities, sexual orientation, age, those identifying as non-binary, social class, educational background, employment status, working pattern, trade union membership or any other factor.

Transgender Inclusion Statement
At Rhymes with Purple, we want to provide a service where everyone is comfortable coming to us for advice and Production Services in a workplace where everyone belongs. At the same time, speaking up for people who face intense disadvantage, detriment and harm is also a crucial part of our belief. Bringing these elements together means we are a proudly trans-inclusive service, in line with our values and social justice approach to advancing equity, diversity and inclusion.
​We are committed to providing equal opportunities and value for all, respecting the diversity of our team and clients. We believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, regardless of gender identity or expression. We have a zero-tolerance approach to discrimination, victimisation or harassment based on a person’s gender identity. We have confidential and supportive methods of reporting experiences or witnessing bullying, harassment, and intolerance for clients and our team members.​
We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all individuals, including those who identify as Trans (‘denoting or relating to a person whose gender identity does not correspond with the sex registered for them at birth.’). We have chosen ‘trans’ because it is one of the broadest and most widely accepted words in current use. However, we recognise it is not a term everyone uses and we recognise and respect everyone’s right to choose how they, as individuals, are described. As in any situation where opinions differ, we always encourage respectful dialogue, remembering there is a person behind the statement. We ask all team members to be mindful of discussions that affect some people more directly and personally than others.​
We recognise the importance of using language affirming and respectful of trans individuals, and we will make every effort to use appropriate pronouns and terminology. We are committed to ongoing education and training for our team to ensure we provide the best possible service to all clients and collaborators.​
We acknowledge that trans individuals face unique challenges and discrimination in our society, and we are committed to providing support and resources that are sensitive and responsive to their needs. We will work to ensure that our services are inclusive and accessible to all individuals, regardless of their gender identity or expression.​
At Rhymes with Purple, we stand in solidarity with trans individuals. We are committed to advocating for their rights and working towards a society that is inclusive and accepting of all individuals, regardless of their gender identity or expression.
