Inclusion

Digital progress is only sustainable if inclusion is one of its cornerstones. 

Over the last few years many charities have invested in digital transformation and EDI programmes. They are often separate pieces of work, but there’s potential to use digital inclusively, helping you connect with more diverse audiences and develop the products and services they need.
