"We are very proud to have gone through the 5 Star Includability Verification Process . We have always been committed to promoting and enabling a positive culture where everyone at ascensos can be themselves. We believe that we all have a role to play in championing Equality and Diversity - by partnering with Includability we believe that we can build a great place to work, learn and grow."
“We're really chuffed to have passed the assessment to become an Includability verified employer. The 5 pillars are central to the success of our people and to our community here at Best.Energy. Sustainability, talent development, wellbeing & mental health and fostering an inclusive workplace are incredibly important to us and are things we're working hard on improving all the time. We're not perfect, but we are working towards always being better and providing our most important asset - our people - the best environment we can to thrive and be happy.”
"Includability has a way of engaging with its members and it has a way of portraying a message. It's quite difficult sometimes to get out there into the public and instead of going right, we want to control everything Includability takes a completely different stance and it's refreshing to see. Insisting the need that the 5-Star Verification process is done independently by the people who know about these things adds to the credit of it and for me, that was really important. We've gone through that process and we're really lucky to be a 5-Star Verified Includability member, which is an honour as well. That was a massive attraction; it's not about just talking the talk; it's about walking the walk"

“I’m pleased that Cotswold Fayre has just come through the Includability 5 Star Verification process. Whilst I am pleased that we are deemed to be acting right in the various areas covered, such as mental health, sustainability, inclusion and wellness, the process both challenged us as a company to do more and helped us raise our bar in several areas. I would encourage all businesses to do the same as you will be a better employer as a result – and attract the best talent.”

We have always been committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion, both as an employer but also as leaders in improving representation within insights and removing barriers to disadvantaged or under-represented talent. We want ENI to be a great place to work, but also work with and guide clients on best practice around inclusive hiring – always striving to influence positive change and enabling everyone to succeed in Insight.

Mencap’s vision is for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives. We have dedicated ourselves to understanding and learning more about diversity and inclusion, and of our collective role in promoting this across all levels of our organisation and within society.

We understand that equity, diversity, and inclusion are essential characteristics of a just and inclusive society. We also know that inequalities deprive people of their rights, dignity, opportunities and sometimes, their lives. We are fully committed and beyond proud to be Includability Official Partner and Committed Employer, as only collectively, working together with likeminded organisations who share common vision, through sharing and learning, we can make meaningful change."
