Empower
Women's Network
The mission of the network is to engage and empower women and their allies across Cygnet. Enabling them to connect with and support each other in a safe and non judgemental environment
Support
Cygnet Disability Network
The network (to be launched in 2023) will be looking at Hidden Disability and Known Disability affecting colleagues in Cygnet, those who are caring for someone with a disability at home, and the impact of disability on your work. It will provide an opportunity to address issues about disability and the impact it has on people's work and their lives at home. We want to provide a safe forum, a place where people can raise issues of disability in a safe way, but also to celebrate positives and the achievements of people living with disability.
Equality
Our Multicultural Network
The Network aims to enhance the experience of ethnic minority colleagues by creating an environment of openness and fairness, promoting excellence, delivering person-centred care, and ensuring opportunities for all staff to be their best.
Everyone valued. Everyone included. Everyone making a difference.
Our service users, residents and young people are incredibly diverse, so we should be too. That’s why we’re working hard to build an inclusive culture where people can be themselves. Whoever they are, wherever they’re from.
