Pride Month Speakers
2027-06-01 - 2027-06-30
Why Celebrate Pride Month?
Pride Month, celebrated every June, promotes inclusivity for the LGBTQ+ community in society and the workplace. It provides a safe space to discuss LGBTQ+ issues, foster allyship, and highlight the importance of workplace inclusivity. By creating an equitable environment, employers help employees feel valued, leading to greater engagement and productivity.
An LGBTQ+ Pride Month Speaker can support this mission by educating staff on diverse identities, challenging exclusionary behaviour, encouraging open discussions, and promoting allyship—which proven to reduce suicidal thoughts among LGBTQ+ individuals.

International Women in Engineering Day
2027-06-23
Why Celebrate International Women in Engineering Day?
As of 2024, women make up approximately 15.7% of the engineering workforce in the UK, a slight decline from 16.5% in 2022. This represents a setback in efforts to increase gender diversity in the field. The drop is particularly concerning given that many women, especially those aged 35 to 44, are leaving the profession, often due to work-life balance challenges, lack of career progression, and an unsupportive work environment. (stats: wes.org.uk/ engineers.scot)
International Women in Engineering Day began in the UK in 2014 and is celebrated on June 23rd every year. The occasion aims to promote their achievements, highlight the importance of a diverse workforce, and encourage the next generation of women into STEM careers. In combination with the Women’s Engineering Society, International Women in Engineering Day seeks to unite government, education, and corporate engineering institutions to raise the profile of engineering as an exciting career choice for women.
