You can read our Equality and Diversity policy
As an employer employing over 250 people we are required to publish details of our gender pay gap, under the Equalities Act 2010 (Gender pay gap information) Regulations 2017.
‘Gender pay gap’ can often be confused with equal pay for men and women doing the same job. Gender pay is looking at the difference between the average earnings of men and women and we are confident that the systems we have in place ensure that men and women doing the same job receive equal pay.
For gender pay we are required to report on the following:
- The average gender pay gap (using the mean and median)
- The average gender bonus pay gap over a 12-month period
- The proportion of males and females in each pay quartile
We are committed to the fair treatment and reward of all our staff irrespective of their gender and offering opportunities for development of our team.

their ethnicity.

Update on Recent Supreme Court Ruling – Our Ongoing Commitment to Inclusion
On 16 April 2025, the Supreme Court made a ruling that defines the legal term ‘woman’ in relation to biological sex. We understand this may raise questions or concerns for some of our customers.
Please be assured that this ruling does not change who we are or what we stand for. At SHG, our commitment to inclusion remains the same. Our belief is simple: Be You. Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and accepted in their home and community.
We’re taking time to fully understand the potential implications of this complex legal issue. As we learn more, we’ll ensure our policies reflect any necessary changes, while staying true to our values.
Support for our customers and communities will always come first. We’ll continue to share updates as further guidance becomes available.
