I asked Diversify if they could support the development of a new team I am setting up within the NHS (mental health services) I was keen to support the development of a culture in the team which embraces and values diversity and difference and discussed these needs with Sara who tailored some training specifically for us. We agreed to two workshops on LGBT and Disability and both sessions were adapted specifically to our needs, with Sara ensuring she knew what we needed and it matched the needs of the team. All the team (around 15 in total) enjoyed both sessions, stating they got a lot out of the workshops. They all engaged well and it is clear they have taken a lot of learning on board from the sessions. I would love to work with Diversify again, very professional, friendly and adaptive.

I just wanted to formally say thank you from the whole Gordonbrock Team for such a fantastic three days of informative, thought provoking workshops. 

Every single child has learnt from you this week! Every single child has benefitted and grown in their understanding of disability from your workshop! Every single child will remember your workshop forever I think.  The workshops have inspired not only our children but also the adults as well.

A Year 5 pupil declared ‘It was very informative, the use of videos helped me see what can happen to disabled people in society. It also reaffirmed to me that everyone is valued and needs to be valued’.

Another said, ‘I found it very interesting as I have a disability, and it helped me feel supported for the future’.

The children loved the Gender Equality Workshop! They engaged well, joined in with the discussions
and were actively thinking about the content and what was being discussed. Sara was a fantastic advocate, the children really enjoyed working with her and she brought energy and enthusiasm which the children reciprocated.  Can’t wait for the next wor

I contacted Diversify to be a part of a panel on marginalised LGBT+ identities and intersectionality at the University of Sheffield’s Students Union, and they were absolutely great! It was so easy to organise with them as the communication was great, and the two advocates who came along (Mon and Kir) were brilliant, providing insightful input and lived experiences for the students who attended.
