Hammersmith Chess Club recognises the importance of inclusion and is committed to ensuring that our club reflects the diversity of our local community.
Our primary aim is to eliminate discrimination in all aspects of club life. To achieve this, we are committed to:
-
- Creating a respectful and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and accepted, regardless of age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, socio-economic background, or cultural, ethnic, or religious identity.
- Clearly communicating the club’s values and expectations to all members and visitors.
- Maintaining fair and inclusive policies that take into account the needs of individuals, including making reasonable adjustments where appropriate.
We ask all members and visitors to uphold these values at club nights and during matches against other clubs.
We strongly encourage anyone who experiences or witnesses discriminatory behaviour to report it to a member of the committee. All reports will be treated with discretion and taken seriously.
Thank you for helping ensure that Hammersmith Chess Club remains a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive place for everyone.
