Equity, diversity & inclusion for charity retailers – 19.9.23
£70.00 excl. VAT
How do you ensure that your staff, volunteers, customers and donors all have the best possible experience in your shops?
Do you feel confident that your teams all have the best knowledge and skills they need to create an inclusive workplace, that welcomes everyone?
Research has shown that staff working within inclusive cultures feel a strong sense of belonging and psychological safety – which leads to greater innovation and stronger performance.
Our highly rated webinar will help you and your teams be more proactive and confident in creating an inclusive culture.
It provides a safe space to explore conscious and unconscious bias in ourselves and others, and shares practical, positive ways to challenge non-inclusive behaviour & language.

“Extremely informative course and has really given some great tips on how to take this into my work life and personal life thank you!” – Shop Manager
