  • 13 years in policing, including as Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Manager

Why it matters

How people treat each other at work shapes everything else: whether staff feel they belong, whether they raise concerns, and how well they serve the public. I've spent more than a decade doing this work inside policing: developing training, advising senior leaders and supporting staff through difficult situations. My sessions are practical, honest and built around situations people recognise.

What I offer

Bespoke training and workshops

Every session is designed around your organisation. Topics I cover include:

  • Anti-racism
  • Microaggressions and everyday behaviour
  • Cultural awareness
  • Inclusive leadership
  • Inclusion and belonging
  • Speaking up and challenging inappropriate behaviour
  • How managers respond when concerns are raised

Formats: Team workshops, sessions for leaders and managers, staff network events and away days.

Speaking, hosting and facilitation

Conference hosting, keynote talks and facilitated discussions on race equality and inclusion. I organised the national Stephen Lawrence Day conference for three years, have hosted the National Black Police Association conference for the last two, and have spoken at conferences and worked with community organisations throughout my career.

Every session is adapted before I arrive

I start with a conversation about your organisation, who will be in the room and what you want to change. I design the session around that and agree the outcomes with you first.

Every course starts with a conversation

Tell me about your team and what you need. Every course is quoted individually, and I reply within one working day.
