The UK music industry has launched an Equality & Diversity Charter for Music. The Charter takes a broad and inclusive interpretation of equality and diversity, and will help champion everything the music industry does to improve its recruitment practices, diversify its decision making and up its outreach.

“We welcome the Equality and Diversity Charter, which represents a long-overdue coming together of all sectors of music working towards inclusivity, equal opportunity and full representation of artists and those who work with them in this richly diverse creative industry.”

John Smith, Musicians’ Union General Secretary
