myGwork WorkPride 2024 Conference returns in June - Free For All Students to Participate

 

Good afternoon, 

I am following up on my previous email about our WorkPride 2024 event. After the tremendous success of our last event, which attracted over 20,000 delegates worldwide, myGwork is excited to announce the return of the exciting WorkPride 2024 conference next month (17-21 June 2024).

Like last year, the conference will provide LGBTQ+ professionals, graduates, allies, and employers with the opportunity to advance workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) initiatives thanks to 60 panels and workshops delivered by over 250 experts. Attending as many sessions as you want is completely free, so we hope you will join us. 

 

As a valued supporter, your collaboration in promoting our #WorkPride conference through your social media channels and newsletters is crucial. This event not only provides a rich educational experience for your community but also aligns with our shared goal of fostering a more inclusive workplace environment. We have enclosed a press release with further details and an image to share with your members.  

We greatly appreciate your support in making this event a success. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you require any additional information. 

Kind regards, 

Yasin

Hi all,

 

As groups who supported our development of the Skills Roadmap for London, we are emailing to notify you that the Skills for Londoners Community Outreach Programme has now opened for applications.

 

The Mayor has committed to delivering a third round of our Community Outreach Programme for small community organisations to raise awareness of London’s adult education opportunities, increase participation in adult learning skills provision, and help to build sustainable links between providers, community groups and the Londoners they work with.

 

Grants of up to £35,000 are available to community organisations who can work with local communities and help signpost Londoners to adult education opportunities. The programme launched on 17 May and the application window closes at 5pm on 21 June. For more information on the programme, please see our website or email the team for more details. 

 

We are also hosting an online webinar for organisations who want to find out more information before applying. Please register your interest here. 

 

Kind regards

 

Lauren

Mental Health Survey

 Good Afternoon,

We hope this message finds you well. To mark the upcoming Mental Health Awareness Week, we are carrying out a Mental Health survey to help us better understand LGBTQ+ employee experiences at work.

As a valued supporter of myGwork, we would be grateful if you could share this survey with your members and network through your social media channels and newsletter. By taking part and sharing this survey, you'll not only contribute to a better understanding of mental health challenges but also stand a chance to win one of three indulgent home spa treatment vouchers from Urban worth £90 each!

Check out the full Mental Health Survey article for more information.

And here is the direct link to our Mental Health Survey.

Thank you for being a part of our community and for your continued support.

Warm regards
