What's not covered?
Some types of discrimination are not covered by the anti-discrimination laws. For example, anti-discrimination laws do not stop you from setting up charities with the aim of helping a certain disadvantaged group. So a charity counselling Muslim women who have suffered from domestic violence would not be acting illegally if they didn't take clients with no religion.
There are also exceptions for religious organisations. For example, the Catholic church doesn't suddenly have to start recruiting women priests.
Money worries
If you’ve lost your job because of discrimination or it’s making it hard for you to get a job in the first place, you might also need help with your finances. Talk to an adviser to see whether you can claim any more help. To find out more about benefits and debt, see 'Links to other websites'.
