About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours 30 minutes

You are invited to the first-ever live recording of the Compassionate Cultures Podcast.

In a time of shifting priorities and growing societal polarisation, what does it really take for organisations to stay committed to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging?

Join us for a powerful live edition of the Compassionate Cultures Podcast, hosted by Rebbecca Hemmings, CEO of Strawberry Words. This intimate event brings together leaders and professionals with a passion for DEI and cultural humility from across sectors for a candid panel discussion on embedding DEI values amidst change, challenge, and uncertainty.

Our panellists include:

  • Loreal Stokes, Head of Student EDI at The University of Birmingham
  • Marcel De Jonghe, Head of EDI&B at Birmingham City Council
  • Helen Cuthill, CEO at The Smallpeice Trust

With great conversation, a little entertainment, networking, and light refreshments, this is an evening you want to be a part of, not just read about on LinkedIn the next day.

NB: This will be a very small and intimate event. Therefore, this event will be removed once capacity is reached to avoid overbooking.
