Community is at the heart of everything we do, and we’ve already set up several initiatives to create a fairer society with good work for all:
- Greater London Authority Design Lab’s Workforce Integration Network Design Lab, removing barriers to recruitment for young black men
- 10,000 Black Interns campaign, offering work experience to young Black people
- 5% Club, aiming to have 5% of our workforce in ‘earn and learn’ positions
- Ban the Box campaign, improving career opportunities for people with convictions
- Care Leavers’ Covenant, promising to provide support for carers aged 16-25
- Workwhile partnership to create high-quality apprenticeships.
