Bringing together our uniqueness

We believe that everyone – our colleagues, our customers, and the communities we work with – deserves to get the most out of life every day. 

As a purpose and values led business, we’ve been passionate about diversity and inclusion for a long time. Equity is in our heritage, and shows up in our values. Together, we’ve been making a difference.

It's two years since we created a bold diversity and inclusion ambition, supported by five commitments and measures to ensure we deliver on them by 2025. In that time, we've been focused on delivering against our commitments with the help of our colleague networks, and our progress is detailed in our 2023 Diversity and Inclusion report.
