    PHOTOGRAPHER SUPPORTERS

    We are incredibly grateful to all the photographers who donated their work to our fundraising sale.

  • COMMUNITY

    As well as developing our own programme of exhibitions and events, we seek to work in partnership with other organisations and individuals and to work collaboratively. 

  • EQUALITY, DIVERSITY AND INCLUSIVITY

    The Centre for British Photography is committed to Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity.


    The mission of the Centre for British Photography is to champion photography made in Britain in all its diversity. We acknowledge that ‘diversity’ relates to multiple considerations including, but not limited to, race, religion or belief, gender and sexual orientation, age, disability, civil status, pregnancy and maternity/paternity rights.


    Our commitment is to support and platform photographs from all backgrounds and to be as inclusive as possible.

     

    As a new organisation we are mindful of the importance of creating a diverse programme of exhibitions and events and also a diverse workforce that serves our communities. To this end we are guided by the 2010 Equality Act which provides a clear legislative framework for addressing discrimination in the workplace, actively promoting diversity and implementing equality of opportunity for all persons. We will regularly monitor, review and adapt both our EDI commitments and actions to remain relevant and effective and report progress to staff, trustees, stakeholders and other relevant parties. We are very mindful of issues around diversity and inclusion and are taking active steps to address this in our recruitment as well as programming.  

     

    Please contact us if you would like to collaborate or support our activities or would be interested in becoming a Trustee or Advisor.
