A message from @ageasuk
Ageas is one of the largest personal lines insurers in the UK, protecting the needs of over four million customers. As an employer diversity and inclusion is a priority for the organisation, and this commitment extends to its customers and the communities it operates in.
As part of its individualistic approach to inclusion, internally Ageas provides support to its LGBTQ+ employees through a Colleague Resource Group and awareness sessions.
Ageas’s partnership with Bourne Free began in 2019 and was the result of an employee-led initiative to support local LGBTQ+ community activity.
In addition to being the sponsor of the Community Village and Stage at the Bourne Free Pride Weekend, Ageas employees get involved by presenting insightful talks and volunteering.
