UNIFY is a collection of BAME network groups in the social housing sector who have formed a larger network to focus on key areas together.
Our overarching goal is to increase inclusion opportunities at all levels, having the diversity of its staff reflected throughout all areas of an organisations.
We are always looking for new members to get involved. If you have enthusiasm to see and create change we want your help. To find out more on how to get involved with our initiatives click the link below.
More needs to be done to accelerate greater leadership diversity. Actions and not just words are important to us.
Together, UNIFY and GatenbySanderson, have developed a programme of bespoke initiatives, workshops and profiling development tools to accelerate learning; for new, aspiring and existing leaders, this programme will aid personal and professional development.
The activities of UNIFY are led by the Core Steering Group. The members are made up of representatives from our member organisations.Â
We also have a variety of volunteers across different organisations all working together and helping us progress different areas.Â
âAs a group of different BAME Networks we have struggled individually to create change within our own organisations. By working together over the years, we are now starting to see signs that the sector is changing and taking on board the ideas coming out of UNIFY'â
