VIDEO: Sussex Police officers and staff come out for LGBT colleagues
The national campaign by Stonewall’s encourages everyone to stand up as an ally for LGBT colleagues to create a workplace in which everyone can be themselves.
Earlier this year, Sussex Police celebrated climbing to 47th place in the Stonewall top 100 employer’s list, and the force’s diversity and equality initiatives continue to provide new ways to ensure the workforce reflects the communities it serves.

“We are proud to be a Stonewall employer and to have a network of proud allies who visibly support LGBT officers and staff. We are also privileged to have such a dedicated and enthusiastic LGBT staff network, LGBT Liaison Officers and external LGBT public advisory group.
“This video and accompanying personal messages highlights the support for diversity and equality within our workforce which, in turn, makes for a safer place for Sussex communities to live and work.”
