The GLIDE Consortium
Gloucestershire LGBTQ+ Inclusion & Diversity for Employers
Over the past few years we have been approached by more and more of the county’s employers reaching to ask how to effectively support LGBTQ+ colleagues, share best practise and understand how they can better support the LGBTQ+ community.
The need to demonstrate good ESG principles of business is increasingly important in today's world not only for recruitment and retention of staff, but also to demonstrate to stakeholders that a company values the community and world in which it works.
In response last September during Pride Week we ran a networking breakfast for employers, those companies that did attend represented over 10,000 employees from across the county. One of the outputs from that event was a desire to have a group to help each other and seek help how to improve LGBTQ+ inclusion in the work place
Therefore we have launched the GLIDE Consortium!

We will now look to plan our first meeting in Late April, there is likely to be a charge for being in the Consortium but we can discuss this as a group at the first meeting. Any charges will be used to cover the cost of running group and is likely to be nominal in value.
More details on the Consortium will develop over time in line with what members look to see from GLIDE.
