It’s National Inclusion Week! The theme this year is Impact Matters.    Caring can be one of the most significant periods of peoples’ lives, and can have a huge impact on anyone. Last year, Carers UK's State of Caring survey showed 82% of carers thought their physical and mental health would be challenged over the coming 12 months.     The Carer Confident benchmarking scheme has been designed to give your organisation the framework to understand how you’re supporting carers in your workplace, and where you need to build more support. Using the experience of the Employers for Carers forum, which has been working with organisations since 2009, it's a practical tool to celebrate brilliant businesses and promote positive change for the future.     Organisations have a huge role to play in their people’s wellbeing; explore how you can show your support for carers.   Let’s show carers matter this Inclusion Week.    #impact #carersmatter #nationalinclusionweek #NiW2024

Today is International Wheelchair Day, a day to reflect on the positive impact a wheelchair has on many lives. Wheelchairs help assist people with physical disabilities and mobility issues, but how as employers can we make sure our workplaces are fully accessible for wheelchairs?    At iDiversity Consulting Ltd we’re passionate about fostering more inclusive work environments, here are two things that can help create accessibility for wheelchair users:   ➡️ Carry out regular access reviews: Identify and address physical limitations within the workplace. ➡️ Use support services: Use services like ‘Access to Work’ and ‘Workplace Needs Adjustments’ to facilitate accessibility modifications.   Let’s raise awareness and work together to build more inclusivity for everyone.   #Internationalwheelchairday #accessibility #inclusion #iDiversityconsulting #accesstowork #workplaceneedsadjustment #disabilityconfident

I want to share our commitment to including everyone. I believe that having different kinds of people makes us stronger. I want our workplace to be a place where everyone feels good and can do well, no matter what they can or can't do. Disabilities don't stop people from being valuable team members; they bring different ways of looking at things that help us all. We make sure our buildings and tools are easy to use for everyone, and I make sure everyone feels like they belong here. Let's cheer for what everyone can do and keep making our world a place where everyone fits in and helps each other. #GlobalDisabilityAwareness #DiversityandInclusion #InclusiveWorkplace #Accessibility #Empowerment #Belonging #CelebrateAbilities 🎉

Inclusivity is not about accommodating individuals with diverse backgrounds and abilities within existing structures; rather, it calls for a fundamental revaluation and reconfiguration of those structures to ensure they benefit everyone. This is the perfect time to rethink how we approach inclusivity in our communities, workplaces, and society at large. True inclusion necessitates creating environments and systems that cater to the needs and aspirations of everyone, regardless of any factors present. It reminds us that inclusivity is not a zero-sum game but a pathway to a more equitable and harmonious society. In making "a new space, a better space," we recognize that the changes we make to accommodate one group can have a ripple effect, resulting in improved conditions, access, and opportunities for all. We, at CareCircle, believes in everyone! We want to be a part of your journey as you discover something new about yourself. We want to create a "Circle" or sanctuary for people who are in need of extensive care and support. Visit our website to get an overview of how we can be mediators of change to your life. Please refer to your friends, family, or anyone who can benefit from our services. 0415 716 516 info@carecircle.com.au www.carecircle.com.au #disabilitysupport #disabilitysupportservices #agedcare #carecircle #dailylivingassistance #personalcareassistance #socialassistance #communityassistance #transportassistance #supportcoordination #ndisplanmanagement #respitecare #sta #mta #sil #supportedindependentliving #householdtasks #groupactivities #ndisregisteredprovider #ndisregistered #ndisprovidernearme #ndisregisteredprovidernearme #disabilitycareprovidernearme #ndis #cleaningandgardening #ndissupportcoordination #ndisplanmanagement #ndissupportedaccommodation #ndissupportcoordination #supportcoordination #coordinationofsupports #CoS

Intergenerational Week is a global event that occurs annually to celebrate inclusive intergenerational practices in the workplace. This year, it is taking place from the 24th of April until the 30th of April. Set up during the pandemic, Global Intergenerational Week is helping to bridge the gap between different generations in the hopes that generational stereotypes are reduced. In April, the ‘Flexible Working Act’ is being updated to encourage individuals over the age of 50 back into the workspace with schemes such as “returnships.” This will allow for diversity and inclusivity amongst generations in the workspace. Let’s help to reduce stereotypes and bridge the gap between generations this week! #ACCV #AgeConnects #IntergenerationalWeek #Inclusivity #BridgeTheGap #Stereotypes #Cardiff #TheVale
