STATEMENT OF INCLUSION

Members of the McGovern community come from all walks of life. We have different backgrounds and come from different cultures. We practise faiths in ways you may be unfamiliar with, with a common belief in the strength of working together to create a stronger future for us all. We are all shades of “skin tone”, different body sizes, and all genders and abilities. We are a rich mix of humanity with a wide range of interests, skills and passions. Sometimes we require adaptation and modification, but always, and only, with the intention of creating an inclusive space for all. We are McGovern, and we’re all in this together!
