As Black History Month wraps up, we're looking back at the amazing events we've had!

Our colleagues from MOSAIC, our race and ethnicity network, have shared what this month represents to them. It’s a time to honour Black heritage, celebrate cultural pride, and embrace the opportunity to show up as their authentic selves at work. Link to full video clip

Here is what some of our colleagues have to say:

Hannah Wright (Asset Management Investment):

"Black History Month is a time to celebrate, to remember, to understand the achievements and the hard work that many generations before me came and paved the way, such as the Windrush generation, which my grandparents are a part of."

Arietta Bortot (Business Risk Manager):

"It's an opportunity for everybody to learn, understand, and share about Black people, culture, heritage, and the impact that it's had on our society today."

Darshana Ramji (HOLT Custom Solutions Europe):

"It's an opportunity to consciously understand and live in the shoes of others. When I mean live in their shoes, I mean just understand what it is like to come into work looking different, feeling different, and yet trying to still find that belonging."

Kane Lesforis-Gowdie (Financial Controller):

"To me, Black History Month is a celebration of resilience, unity, and pride. Black History Month is not just confined to one month, and it's not just about the past—it's about the now."

Abassa Byfield (Data Management):

"Black History Month to me is a time for quiet contemplation."

Nichola Silvano (Business Manager):

"And also time to have an opportunity to think about what people are doing to make the workplace better and have a more inclusive culture."

But our support for Black talent doesn't stop here. We're committed to uplifting diversity all year round. Stay tuned for more from MOSAIC as we continue celebrating different cultures!
