What does it mean to be an ally, and how does this apply to our workplace? Join us for this session to help you and your team develop a shared understanding of allyship, and build confidence in your approach to allyship moving forwards.

“The training was excellent, incredibly useful and informative.”
No matter who we are, we all have opportunities to demonstrate allyship. In this interactive session we will explore what it means to be an ally to people from marginalised groups. What are our responsibilities? What roadblocks do we encounter in committing to those responsibilities, and how can they be overcome? Participants will have a chance to discuss these questions in depth, while building tools, principles and approaches that can be utilised in their practice moving forwards.
