Person/Organisation:

The Equal Group

Introduction:

The Equal Group was established to give organisations the tools and support needed to reap the advantages of embracing equality, diversity and inclusion (ED&I). Our passion comes from a deep-seated belief that ED&I benefits not only individuals but organisations, sectors and society as a whole. Changing attitudes in the workplace can be a catalyst to how we interact with our colleagues in and outside the office or other environments. Embedding ED&I is not always easy, so we aim to simplify this as much as possible, ensuring that the organisations we work with are equipped with the skills and knowledge to continue their ED&I journeys after our engagement period. Our approach ensures that our clients are not dependent on The Equal Group to achieve intersectional, measurable and sustainable ED&I progress in future.

Offer:

The Equal Group is offering an incredible opportunity to 20 London-based further education providers to join a FREE 12-month Programme, sponsored and fully funded by the Greater London Authority, designed to enhance inclusivity, representation, and employee well-being at your organisation.
