Congratulations to Helen Knight who has been appointed as the Co-Chair for the Warwick Stonewall Self-Assessment Team

Warwick is a Stonewall Diversity Champion and has submitted to the UK Workplace Equality Index for a number of years. In the 2020 Index we ranked 123 out of 500 institutions, and we aspire to be in the top 100. Helen, CDT & PGT Administrative Officer has been appointed as the Co-Chair the Warwick Stonewall Self-Assessment Team. This team was set up in 2020 to develop and deliver an action plan informed by Stonewell’s feedback on our previous submission, gather evidence of good practise from across the University and help put the next submission together.

This team works closely with the team from Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is made up of colleagues from across the University community.

"I became a member of the Rainbow Taskforce in 2020 and joined the Stonewall SAT shortly afterwards. I am passionate about equality, and very keen to make a difference and especially by helping people who do not know where to begin when looking for support or those who need a voice. I am very proud to work for an organisation which supports diversity and inclusion, and makes me feel welcome and safe as a member of the LGBTQUA+ community. I am very fortunate, and not many people are in such a position as I am in their workplace, so I feel it is important to give back and why I am so excited to make a contribution to this area."
