The group met following an online seminar that took place on Friday 3 December 2021: What Makes an Inclusive Culture? This event was part of the #SaferCultureSaferSport online seminar series.

What do we mean by an ‘inclusive Culture’ within an organisation? And what do organisations need to do to create safer, more inclusive cultures?

  • Removing the labels: Are all people with impairments “vulnerable”?
  • Permitting authenticity.
  • A person-centred approach.
  • Vulnerability vs Risk.
  • What do we need to think about to get to an inclusive, safer culture?
