A core part of our TRUE Values — Trust, Respect, Unity and Empowerment — is creating a safe and vibrant space for the diverse lives of colleagues and that task takes every aspect of our TRUE Values to achieve. This June for Pride Month, we are proud to celebrate our colleagues who identify as members of the LGBTQIA+ community.
TRUE Pride Week: A Celebration of Values
As part of our celebration, we are kicking off the last week of June as “TRUE Pride Week” where we will be hosting activities, workshops and events to celebrate pride, with each day of the week reflecting a different value culminating in a day of fun and celebration.
The Fellowship Framework: Supporting Colleagues
As part of our commitment to inclusion, we’re introducing the Fellowship Framework through our CHROMA Network. This initiative aims to assist colleagues in their coming-out journey within the business. It is run through a buddy-up system which ensures no one faces this process alone. Whether sharing experiences, providing guidance, or simply being there, we’re here to support each other.
