Our journey with Inclusion and Diversity (I&D)

We’re asking you if you’re the missing piece because as a Board, we embrace and encourage diversity as we know from experience that it’s our differences that make us stronger.

We’re never ‘complete’, because there’s always more to learn and more perspectives to share.

We don’t know what we might be missing, and that’s what we want to hear from you. We know that everyone brings something special, something essential, to our shared story.

And so our commitment to I&D isn’t just a policy, or a tick box exercise

It's a philosophy that influences our every decision and action and is a living, evolving practice that we prioritise every day. It shapes our approach when it comes to things like:

  • making the right decisions for our members
  • governance of the Schemes
  • our member services, and
  • the culture within our team.

We recognise that the collective strength of both Schemes lies in the diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences of our members and the Trustees that look after their money.

Because we know no two people are the same

We really believe that every person has their own individual story to tell, and each one of those not only matters, but enriches the conversation and brings new perspective.

By embracing inclusivity, we’re always striving to make sure that our Trustee Board (and the Trustee Talent Team) has a range of experiences to bring to the table, and ideas that make us stronger as a team. And so, we’re committed to creating an environment where everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, feels valued and included.

We do this by...
  • Listening more than we talk - and evolving as we listen
  • Encouraging a safe space for open and honest conversations
  • Making it a priority to increase our own awareness around I&D
  • Celebrating the diversity within the Schemes
  • Communicating to our members in the most accessible way
  • Being a helping hand and providing support as and when it's needed

In short, inclusion and diversity are at the heart of everything that we do.
