Riding the rainbow: recapping Entain's Pride Month journey
With a mission to foster inclusivity and equity, embrace diversity, and let our pride shine, we left no stone unturned in bringing our vibrant LGBTQIA+ community together this Pride Month. So, grab your foam fingers and join us as we relive the highlights of this incredible 4 weeks!
Relaunching Pride@Entain Network
We kicked off Pride Month by refreshing our Important Pride@Entain network. With a new Chair and a local rep community,we’re paving the way for a future filled with even greater inclusivity and representation.
Pride Library: Stories That Inspire
What's a celebration without a good playlist? We unveiled our very own Pride Library, packed with recommendations for podcasts, movies, books, and songs that celebrate pride in all its glory. Whether you're searching for a powerful anthem or a thought-provoking read, our library had something for everyone to level up their understanding and appreciation of LGBTQIA+ experiences.
A Knockout Experience with Nicola Adams
Pride Month became an arena of inspiration when we welcomed professional sportswoman, Nicola Adams. As a female boxer in the LGBTQIA+ community, Nicola shared her remarkable journey, reminding us of the importance of inclusivity and celebrating diversity. She left us all feeling like champions, ready to stand tall in our own unique identities.
Global Celebrations: Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
From touchdown dances to victory laps, our colleagues worldwide joined forces in a flurry of local Pride celebrations which showcased our vibrant spirit to the world. Rainbow merch, dazzling decorations, and engaging in-store activations transformed the Entain spaces into safe havens of self-expression. As we rallied together from London to Manila, we demonstrated that our Entain’s power lies not only in our individual talents but in our ability to embrace each other's differences.
Pride Wellbeing Week
In the midst of all the excitement, we paused for a moment to focus on the mental health of our team members. Pride Wellbeing Week took centre stage, promoting the importance of self-care and reminding everyone about the support available. Remember, self-care is a critical power-up on our path to victory!
Storytelling Campaign: Tales of Triumph
Our colleagues from around the globe shared their personal journeys and created a tapestry of experiences, inspiring us to be allies and advocates for change. By highlighting the diverse voices within our community, we aimed to educate and promote understanding among our colleagues.
As the final whistle blows on this exhilarating month of celebration, we reflect on the power of unity, acceptance, and the indomitable spirit of our LGBTQIA+ community at Entain. As we tuck away our rainbow flags until next year, let's not forget that pride is not confined to a single month—it's a lifelong journey.
