Stephanie Fuller (CEO at Switchboard LGBT+ Helpline):

“We are honoured to be partnering with Unilever and Superdrug for a sixth year this Pride Month! This partnership leverages our organisation immensely. It puts our brand in people’s homes, on products they see daily and use all year round, because our community needs support all year round, and not just during Pride Month.”

“Our partnership with Unilever and Superdrug enables us to reach audiences that we would never be able to reach on our own. Seeing trusted brands like Unilever and Superdrug alongside our own lends confidence to people who may need to call us, which includes people calling for themselves or perhaps about a loved one.”

Our proUd network made up of LGBTQI+ colleagues and allys is a thriving community within the UK & Ireland that supports our organisation to build the inclusive culture we strive towards. 

Since its founding three years ago, proUd has set out to be a beacon of inclusion for the LGBTQI+ community and allies, amplifying their voice in society and at Unilever. It has also grown from 250 colleagues to 1,200 worldwide.

Every one of them has access to a private membership group on Microsoft Teams, ensuring their privacy and safety. An important measure for those who live in countries where they aren’t free to be their true, authentic selves and their human rights are severely compromised.

“Unilever’s proUd network not only offered me community, acceptance, support and understanding, it’s also felt like a friendly, safe, and inclusive space. A space that can make a difference and where I could make a difference. It made me proUd to be part of Unilever,” he says.

“You cannot over-estimate how mentally freeing it is to know you don’t have to hide any aspect of yourself. And our community is an incredible group of people, I wouldn’t miss knowing and being known by them for the world,” she says.
