This year’s theme – #EveryActionCounts – highlights the importance of collective and individual efforts in driving meaningful change.
BME employee network
Why not get involved in our black and minority ethnic employee network.
It's run by our colleagues with a drive and a real commitment to bring people together with shared and different backgrounds and experiences and provides a safe space for colleagues and offer opportunities to network and connect with others.
The network also complements a range of ways in which we engage and consult with colleagues and helps us to understand your needs and experiences in the development of our employment policy and practice.
Any colleague can join the network – it meets quarterly and has its own Teams channel for colleagues to share thoughts and information between meetings.
Here are the meeting dates for this year:
- Thursday 20 February 2025 from 1pm to 2pm
- Tuesday 20 May 2025 from 11am to midday
- Thursday 21 August 2025 from 1pm to 2pm
- Tuesday 18 November 2025 from 11am to midday
