The BHA has written guidance for public authorities and organisations who may be undertaking 'religion or belief' equalities work. It gives information about current legislation with regard to 'religion and belief' and gives good practice guidelines on employment and equality schemes.

BHA has also designed a toolkit to support equality practioners in their work by giving guidance and information about the 'strand' via exercises and presentations. It can be used by anyone who is comfortable giving presentations and can be delivered to colleagues in the equality sector, 'religion or belief' groups and other community groups.
