Statement 1 – We understand the current demographic profile of who accesses (participants, members, athletes) our services, provision, delivery system, and how this compares to their appropriate community (e.g. National / regional / county/ local community)

Discussion Questions

• Do we collect data e.g. protected characteristics, educational and socio-economic background, geographic location? Do we collate this data or view the data available from a third party? How and when?
• Do we review this? Who reviews and how do they use this to inform decision making?
• Do the Board or senior leaders review gaps, underrepresentation and consider solutions?
• Has this been reviewed within the last 4 years?
