Our inquiry is independent of any other inquiry or review and we are independent of any statutory authority. We are not engaged in partnerships or formal associations with other bodies, whether government agencies, coalitions of community organisations, or representatives of any specific religious, political or other traditions in Leicester or elsewhere. We warmly welcome the participation of all of Leicester’s communities in our inquiry. We aim to work with and engage all people and communities in Leicester while maintaining our independence, impartiality and objectivity.
