Diversity and Inclusion in UK Retail: 2025 Report Launch
In this webinar, we’ll explore key findings from the 2025 Diversity & Inclusion in UK Retail report.
Diversity and Inclusion in UK Retail: 2025 Report Launch
For the fifth year, the Diversity & Inclusion Report, driven by research from the MBS Group and the British Retail Consortium, explores the status of diversity and inclusion (D&I) in the retail sector today. A product of extensive interviews with CEOs, HRDs and Chairs across the industry, it updates on insights and progress five years on from the original report in 2021.
The latest report also builds on the progress of the D&I Charter, a change programme developed in collaboration with our D&I partners, RPC LLP. The Charter acts as a forum for members to collaborate and share best practice, and provides signatories with exclusive access to tailored roundtables covering a diverse range of topics to help members with their D&I strategies.
In this webinar, together with the MBS Group team, we will explore key findings from the 2025 Diversity & Inclusion in UK Retail report, welcoming questions and feedback from attendees.
