Diversity Data Reporting 2025

The SRA Diversity Questionnaire was circulated internally by email to all 63 employees/workers (including 1 individual who had been offered a role but not yet commenced employment) and followed up with 2 separate reminders for completion. 56 out of 63 individuals responded to the questionnaire, with one response being inaccessible and their data has been collated to produce the information below.

Individuals were invited to submit their completed questionnaires anonymously electronically (scanned in) or in hard copy. All data has been reported anonymously to ensure compliance with Data Protection.

A copy of this report will be circulated internally via email and uploaded in the shared library area on HR Genie, the firm’s internal HR software. A copy will also be published on the Firm’s website.
