Proud Voices with Wavenet - Amplifying LGBTQ+ Stories for Pride Month placeholder thumbnail

While Pride Month may have passed, its impact and significance continues. As a company committed to fostering an inclusive environment, we believe in cherishing and uplifting the diverse voices of our LGBTQ+ team members. During Pride Month, Wavenet has amplified the experiences and narratives of our LGBTQ+ team members.

Pride Focus Picture-05“I am incredibly grateful for the support and acceptance I have received from Wavenet regarding my sexuality. After enduring a disappointing and disheartening experience at a previous workplace, finding a safe and inclusive environment has been transformative. Wavenet's commitment to diversity and inclusion has fostered a sense of belonging, allowing me to work without fear of judgment or discrimination. The support I receive from my colleagues and the organisation as a whole is a testament to their dedication to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.”

Poppie, Bid Manager

Pride Focus Picture-04“When I joined the team, I was warmly welcomed and supported from the moment I stepped through the door. Wavenet clearly values every individual for who they are and understands the importance of creating an environment where everyone feels comfortable, respected, included and embraced for who they are.”

Oskar, Marketing Executive

Pride Focus Picture-06“I was thrilled to help set up Wavenet’s LGBTQ+ and Allies group in 2020. I have felt able to be my whole self around my colleagues and also with our technology partners too. I consider this a core factor in our success. Happy, empowered employees are more productive and more focused.”

Johnathan, Head of Contact Centre Solutions

Wavenet and LGBT Foundation: Celebrating Pride Month with Purposeful Fundraising

At Wavenet, we believe in the power of unity, equality, and celebrating diversity. During Pride Month, we have fundraised to support the LGBT Foundation, an organisation dedicated to supporting and uplifting the LGBTQ+ community.

The Wavenet team has actively engaged and encouraged fundraising efforts to support the LGBT Foundation, and with our CEO, Bill Dawson, promising to match the donations from colleagues within the business, we have raised a total of £624.

 

Diversity lies at the heart of our values at Wavenet. We recognise the unique experiences and challenges faced by individuals within the LGBTQ+ community and our team members. We are committed to supporting our team members’ journey towards acceptance and inclusion beyond Pride Month.
