Real change starts from within. Over the last month, we celebrated the history, culture, and contributions of Black communities and the diverse experiences of our colleagues through a programme of events led by our Race Equality Network.   Highlights from October included: - A hands-on steel pan workshop, where we learnt about the instrument's cultural significance. - An African and Caribbean-themed celebration featuring a powerful Acro Staff performance by Kofi Mingo, dancing, and a taste of traditional cuisine. - Weekly African, Caribbean, and African American dishes served at our London office. Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make these events memorable. As we move beyond October, we'll continue to celebrate and amplify these voices.
