Encouraging inclusion is not just about protected characteristics, it’s about celebrating differences of thought, opinion, experience and perspective of each individual. We’re all different in our own way and we want our colleagues to feel comfortable, that they belong, and are safe to be themselves at work, without fear of being judged or excluded, but valued for their contribution to our One Team approach.People lie at the heart of Two Rivers Housing’s success and we offer great rewards in return for great contributions from our staff.We have always been deeply committed to training, motivating and developing our staff in a variety of ways, and our continuing focus on this has been recognised by several .
