STAFF at Warrington recruitment company GI Group are celebrating after winning two awards for their work in encouraging an inclusive workplace.

The company, which has a branch on Dallam Lane, won the accolades for Innovation of the Year and Diversity and Inclusion Initiative of the Year at the British Recruitment Awards.

The honours recognise the team’s development of its “This is Me” Neuro Guide - a programme designed to promote understanding between neurotypical and neurodivergent colleagues.

The winning guide, which includes practical advice on language and communication for the company’s 500-strong workforce, has become a core part of GI Group’s diversity initiatives.

Emma-Louise Taylor, Gi Group’s Head of Learning and Development, said: “It’s incredibly rewarding to see our ‘This is Me’ initiative honoured at this level.

“This award is a testament to the passion and effort poured into creating a guide that opens doors for genuine understanding and inclusivity.

“This recognition reinforces our belief that when everyone feels valued, both people and organisations thrive.”

Pete Taylor, GI Group’s managing director, said: “Winning these awards is a huge endorsement of our commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace.

“'This is Me' reflects our dedication to celebrating the strengths of neurodiversity, and I couldn’t be prouder of our team’s pioneering work.

“By embracing neurodiversity, we are not just supporting individuals; we’re enhancing our business with fresh perspectives that drive innovation.”
