Call for evidence on discrimination against non-religious people
The BHA is gathering evidence of discrimination against non-religious people.
We are collecting recent (within the last 3 years) case studies to send to the Equality and Human Rights Commission. The most useful examples will be from the following policy areas:
Education (Have you or your child been refused entry to a school due to your non-religious beliefs? Have you been treated badly by a school regarding collective worship? Have you been refused membership of a SACRE? Have you been turned down from a job at a faith school due to your beliefs?)
Public Services (Have you ever been refused a service due to your non-religious beliefs? Do you know of any services in your area contracted out by the council to religious organisations? Have you ever felt harassed when receiving a public service?)
Equalities/employment (Have you ever been refused a job due to your beliefs? Have you ever been refused a place on a local authority group due to your beliefs? Have you ever felt harassed at work due to your beliefs?)
Other examples are also welcome! Please send them before the 15th January to campaigns-intern@humanism.org.uk
