Sutton Council Inclusive Language Guide

terry173 — 2025-04-30 15:04:39 UTC

Using language, both verbally and written, that is as inclusive as possible is a key part of creating a welcoming environment for everyone. This guide contains general principles, some specific examples and tips to challenge where needed.

It is important to remember that language is always evolving, varies across cultures and individual perspectives and that people hold different opinions so there isn’t a single ‘right' answer.

Remember that not all communication is verbal, and look at the person that you are speaking to to see if there are physical indicators that might help you, or to gauge how people are reacting to what you are saying.

Get Connected Swindon

terry173 — 2025-05-07 10:35:27 UTC

Digital exclusion is about not being able to access and use the internet to benefit from digital in everyday life. The main barriers people face are: not being able to afford to access the internet to get connected or stay connected (not having sufficient data connectivity; not having a suitable device), and not having the skills, confidence, and support to use the internet. A person’s digital capability is hugely dependent on their skills and motivation to safely, confidently navigate the online world as well as having the ‘hardware’ to do so. Some people experience all these barriers together. Some can afford data and a device, but lack skills; others may have the skills, but not be able to afford data connectivity, or afford a device.
