This #PrideMonth, we’re reflecting on the importance of LGBTQ+ inclusion in social care. A recent article by The King's Fund emphasises a crucial reminder: LGBTQ+ people and families have always existed, but how the health care sector treats LGBTQ+ individuals is intrinsically linked to our survival as a community, and how society views us. The article explores the history of LGBTQ+ healthcare, highlighting the prevalence of discrimination in the past and the positive changes witnessed in recent decades. Looking ahead, we can enhance LGBTQ+ inclusion in social care by: 🟢Educating staff on the specific needs of LGBTQ+ clients. 🟢Creating a culture of acceptance where everyone feels comfortable being themselves. 🟢Advocating for policies that promote LGBTQ+ rights and well-being. We're committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for our employees and customers. How can the social care sector ensure everyone receives the care and respect they deserve? We would love to hear your thoughts 🌈 #PASSforCare #PrideMonth #SocialCare

Hey Marketers, It's Pride Month, but ditch the rainbow washing! This year, focus on REAL connections with the LGBTQ+ community. Ditch the fluff, deliver value. Pride merch is cool, but what about creating a valuable resource for the LGBTQ+ community? Think Skittles- it shows you understand their needs. Partner with LGBTQ+ creators. Let the community own the narrative. Amplify their voices and showcase their talent. True advocacy is about empowering others, not just tooting your own horn. Pride is year-round. Don't be a one-month wonder. Integrate LGBTQ+ support into your brand like MAC Cosmetics. Real allyship is a long-term commitment. #PrideMonth #LGBTQ+Ally #AuthenticMarketing
