WCA Equality Policy
The WCA aims to ensure that all people, irrespective of
their age, gender, disability, race, religion, ethnic origin, colour, social
status or sexual orientation, have genuinely equal opportunities to
participate in paddlesport at all levels and in all roles. This includes
participants, supporters, coaches, officials, volunteers, job applicants and
employees.
The WCA recognises that discrimination is unacceptable and
will not tolerate direct or indirect discrimination.
