“Mulberry were delighted to partner with the Flourish in Diversity team during their pilot year.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is an important focus for us and we are committed to ensuring we are a leader in our industry for positive action. Supporting our communities and nurturing the future generation of talent has always been at the heart of what we do.
We are passionate about removing barriers to a career in the creative industries and enabling alternative pathways into fashion. We are also committed to our Made to Last strategy and the focus of the course on sustainable production within fashion was absolutely aligned with our business goals.”
Sarah Roberts, Head of Talent, Mulberry
“TOAST is committed to nurturing and growing our community of creatives, so we were delighted to participate in Flourish in Diversity's pilot programme. It felt like a true knowledge sharing exercise. We shared our learnings from working with suppliers and artisans, while the trainees challenged us – we exchanged innovative and thought-provoking ideas on how the industry can, and must, improve. I was particularly blown away by the strength of the end of programme presentations. It was evident that each trainee had gained so much from the experience both personally and professionally.”
