Celebrate The Diversity Of Your Workforce With Cultural Style Week!
During Cultural Style Week from 21-27 May, people from all over the world are encouraged to participate and take part wherever they are by proudly wearing their cultural styles for a day or across the week.
This growing London birthed movement was created to encourage and empower people of all backgrounds to celebrate their unique cultural heritage through personal style, whilst encouraging harmonious dialogue around cultural celebration and acceptance.
We are calling on all employees and employers to take part in Cultural Style Week 2023 and celebrate the diversity within their workforce in a new way!
By participating in Cultural Style Week, you can clearly demonstrate your commitment to celebrating the diversity and cultural acceptance of your workforce by creating an atmosphere of pride and positivity around traditional dress.
An important element of cultural style is about forging connections with heritage and ancestry. That’s why we felt an acute need to support those who have been uprooted from their homes and must now create new lives in a different country. Our 2023 charity partners Refugee Action and Refugee Education UK do amazing things to help people in these circumstances. You can support them by adding a fundraising element to your participation.
