June is Pride month which means that a worldwide light is shone on people and diversity. A time for celebration and raising awareness, marches are held in cities across the world to recognise the LGBTQ+ community as we all unite under the iconic rainbow flag.
Throughout the month, the Bisley Well-being team has been busy creating a schedule packed with fun activities that educates and informs our people.
At the start of the month, we launched a collection of limited-edition Pride inspired MultiDrawers, where you could get our storage classic in a unique rainbow design over on the Bisley Shop. A percentage of each MultiDrawer sale will be donated to Stonewall, a charity that stands for lesbian, gay, bi, trans, queer, questioning, and ace (LGBTQ+ people everywhere. Their mission is to have a world where all LGBTQ+ people are free to be themselves and can live life to the full.
Other activities included an informative weekly Pride quiz, a workshop that discussed unconscious bias hosted by Cerys Presents, and every week throughout June, a poster and a dedicated quote was shared which focussed on important themes such as Home and Community and Representation and Visibility, sparking many interesting conversations throughout the workplace. The month culminated with a rainbow-themed bracelets and cupcakes sale to raise more money for Stonewall.
While Pride Month is coming to an end, the conversation and learning about Pride’s history will continue. This year, we’ve already celebrated International Women’s Day, Pride, and we look forward to hosting our Macmillan Coffee Morning in September and International Men’s Day in November.
