Diversity and inclusion in September
This September, we’re getting ready for National Inclusion Week, from the 15-21 September. You can join in with our Activity Pack https://online.flippingbook.com/view/422878713/ or by joining some of the events during the week:
Digital Inclusion Coffee Morning, Tuesday 16 September 11-12am | Join our Digital Inclusion Officer to find out more about how getting online can connect us all: https://bit.ly/3HKsug7
Living Library, Thursday 18 September, 1-2pm | Hear Jane’s experience of parenthood, adoption, and mental health - Being a mum of two adopted children has been eye opening in so many ways and was a huge leap of faith into parenthood! It led me to not only ponder my children’s early years, but also my own upbringing, values and culture. What parts of me and my past were valuable to share and pass on, what elements were worth keeping and which were unworthy of a place in our world today? https://bit.ly/47EtInE
Our Annual Inclusion Conference takes place on Thursday 25 September. For the first time, we’re bringing together involved residents and our colleague network members for a great day to discuss D&I at Anchor, focusing on ‘inclusive design’. We can’t wait to see everyone for a productive day!
