We expect people to show understanding, care, and respect towards each other. Therefore, we maintain the following statements.

• No sexist, homophobic, transphobic, or misogynistic language is allowed. Any form of discrimination towards other members/staff is unacceptable.
• There is no gossiping about anyone, regardless of whether they are in the centre or not
• Any form of aggressive behaviour or sexual harassment towards other members or staff is not accepted. You will be told to leave the Centre immediately.
• There is no drinking or taking of non-prescription drugs on the premises. If you are presenting in an unsafe way, you will be asked to leave the Centre.
• Be aware that certain issues may be particularly sensitive ones for other people. Please don’t be offended if you are asked to discuss the issue in the office rather than in the main area or if you are asked to change the conversation.

Thank you
