LGBTQ+

The LGBT+ Workstream is an umbrella group made up of LGBT Great and InterInvest. The workstream is co-chaired by Matt Cameron and Deon Pillay. Each organisation is operated and governed individually and works together in pursuit of three broad goals:

  • To increase awareness, visibility, and DE&I overall.
  • To promote best practices to support the community and its allies.
  • For all Diversity Project members to participate in LGBT+ benchmarking.

Objectives and Success Measures:

  • To increase LGBT+ visibility across all Diversity Project members.
  • To develop, identify and promote best practices to improve engagement.
  • To identify and recruit Project 1000 Role Models and Allies in five years.
  • To engage executive leadership, and other stakeholders, with purpose.

Key Actions:

  • To increase the number of visible role models and allies.
  • To grow our communities across members and other workstreams.
  • To get all members participating in LGBT+ benchmarking to track success.
  • To increase engagement in the Workstream’s events and activities.
  • To share best practices and encourage collaboration where possible.

Member Quotes

"Whilst there has been some progress for LGBT+ inclusion within the investment and savings industry here in the UK, visibility and representation still remain low. By working collaboratively, the Diversity Project’s workstream is providing access to safe spaces, building awareness, boosting visibility and creating and environment which is welcoming to the community. We look forward to continuing the progress now, and into the future."
