We are a Disability Confident Employer and have signed up to the Mindful Employer Charter.

Disability Confident

Disability Confident organisations play a leading role in changing attitudes, behaviour and cultures in their own businesses, networks and communities.

The scheme helps employers:

• draw from the widest possible pool of talent
• secure high quality staff who are skilled, loyal and hard working
• improve employee morale and commitment by demonstrating that you treat all employees fairly

It also helps customers and other businesses identify those employers who are committed to equality in the workplace.

Mindful Employer Charter

Established in 2004, Mindful Employer is a UK wide initiative run by Devon Partnership NHS Trust. Providing employers with easier access to professional Workplace Mental Health training, information and support, the initiative aims to help empower employers to take a lead in supporting the mental wellbeing of their staff. By signing the ‘Charter for Employer Positive About Mental Health’, East Sussex College have made a public statement of our desire to support the mental health of our staff across the organisation.
