The seed was planted by our EmbRace You committee and the planning quickly grew into a whole week of initiatives. It was so uplifting and inspiring to see so many Ambassadors, managers, team leaders and the head office team celebrate and promote inclusion in all its forms.
The theme for National Inclusion Week this year was about connecting with a person or organisation to help them understand the opportunity of inclusion and inspiring each other to make inclusion an everyday reality. We know that an inclusive workplace is a more productive and innovative one, but what is far more important about inclusion in the workplace is how it positively impacts our wellbeing and mental health.

On Tuesday, some Ambassadors viewed and discussed the short film Purl and how this highlights the importance of inclusion and kindness. On Wednesday, we hosted our very first Instagram live Cook-Off, where we had a real-time tiramisu demonstration and shared dishes sent in by other Ambassadors. Thursday saw many Ambassadors sharing song suggestions for our new ‘Be You At Rapport’ playlist. To conclude a fantastic week, Rapport hosted a virtual end of week celebration and a cocktail shake-along for all to enjoy.
