Diversity in Retail is Devoted to Increasing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Across Retail

We believe that through collaboration we can amplify the impact of individual EDI initiatives and together we can have a bigger, louder voice for the good of the Retail sector.

Our joint mission with WiHTL is to support companies across the Retail, Hospitality, Travel and Leisure industry to create diverse and inclusive environments and positively impact 5 million employees globally by 2030.

What We Do

We conduct research and provide equity, diversity and inclusion content that is relevant and inspiring.

Share and learn from others

We nurture collaboration and sharing across the industry, creating multiple opportunities to interact and identify best practices that work in the Retail sector.

Co-create solutions

We support companies and executives in building a diverse talent pipeline through cross-industry leadership development programmes.

Support Organisations on their journey

We create bespoke solutions for our members when they need additional or deeper support to progress their EDI journey, driving organisational growth.

What's Coming Up

At the end of April we will be hosting 3 bitesize workshops on the topic of Employee Network Groups (ENGs), with the aim of providing practical guidance on setting up and managing ENGs that will enable organisations to advance on their EDI journey and create truly inclusive workplaces.


The first session will cover the benefits of network groups and how to set them up for success, exploring topics such as structure, vision, sponsorship and communication.

The second session of the series will provide insight into the responsibilities of the network leads or Chair, the key skills required to effectively lead the group and examples of positive actions and best practice.

The third and final session will explore what success looks like for ENGs and how to measure their effectiveness and business impact.
