Hosted by Kate Ese, Head of Operations at The Equal Group, with guests Rebekah Taitt, Regional Development Director at Lloyds Bank, and Michael Adeniya, Chief Operating Officer at UK Black Business Show.

The Equal Group hosted a webinar with Women in Construction ambassador and BBC Apprentice finalist Michaela Wain, member of the Gemserv executive team Miriam Atkin and Michelle Lim , project engineer for Network Rail. The discussion covered the importance of distinguishing between equity and equality in construction and engineering, addressing barriers faced by women and strategies for removal. The panel also explored the roles of women, male allies, and organizations in supporting women in these sectors.

During this webinar we discuss the definition of disability, ableism in the workplace (e.g. what is it and how to avoid it) ; common myths about disability and workplace policies and best practice to support employees with disabilities. Hosted by Allan Reid, Consultant at The Equal Group, with guests Olga Chernyarska, qualified Humanistic Integrative Counsellor, and Lillie Jamieson, Co - Founder of Send it to Alex.

Due to an overwhelming amount of engagement from our last webinar, we decided to run a follow up session to continue the conversation. Hosted by Mac Alonge, CEO and Founder of The Equal Group, and Becky Shand with guest Martha Awojobi, Director of JMB Consulting.
