Inclusive Practice

Manchester

Where are you on your EDI journey? We are all unique. Fact. Diversity is what makes the world such an interesting and vibrant place. Utilising diverse skills and talents makes excellent business sense. When diversity is valued and an equitable, inclusive culture prevails, people feel safe to be themselves. Staff and students are more engaged and more productive. Over recent years, great strides have been made on a legal level towards making organisations more inclusive, however knowing how to do so takes a little extra help. In our ideal world, equality, diversity and inclusion would become so completely embedded across society that our services would no longer be required… but until that happens, here we are to help you on your EDI journey. We offer a free and friendly consultation call to discuss your training requirements. If you’re not quite sure what an EDI training course should entail, you can trust us to use our knowledge and experience to advise on the length and content of the session to ensure your training needs are met. We employ a range of teaching styles and resources to cater for different learning styles to allow delegates to discuss, debate, ask questions and explore real-life situations in context. We are Approachable We pride ourselves in being friendly and approachable. You’ll get that from our emails, phone calls and in the training session itself. We recognise that EDI can feel like an uncomfortable topic, so establishing a safe space is super important. We aim to create an environment where people feel they can share diverse viewpoints, contribute to discussions and ask questions without fear. We are Committed We are committed to promoting real and lasting change that goes beyond simply awareness-raising. Our training will provide delegates with practical strategies that can be implemented immediately after the training, as well as longer-term measures. The Equality Code, our best practice audits and the signposting to further resources give you all the tools you need to continue your EDI journey, long after we’ve left the building. We are Honest Honesty is the cornerstone of integrity for us. We will answer your questions openly and honestly and guide you to make the best decisions for your organisation based on our years of experience. Should you ask for something that we don’t think will work, we’ll say so.

Truly Essential

If you want to be different, just be yourself" Living and being brought up on a hill top farm in Yorkshire. Having a life-long interest in the countryside, health, well-being, affordability, cruelty-free products and using natural products where possible, I bring the best to my clients by doing the best for the environment in the process. A little about me… I studied rural science at school which I enjoyed as it covered life cycle of native animals, plants and trees, natural habitat, conservation and land management at a basic level, art and history also firm favourites. In my late twenties I decided to return to college to pursue a career in hairdressing and soon to be followed, by a two year course in beauty therapy. My passion for natural source of healing combined with plant extracts and massage therapy was realised. At this point I was working full time in a local beauty salon in Skipton, returning to Craven College to study aromatherapy part time for a further year. After gaining valuable experience in the beauty salon, whilst having a young family I worked part time for Next PLC Skipton. This position built my confidence, varied retail business and social skills, working with amazing colleagues, as a sales adviser occasionally a weekend manager. Moving forward I started my own business as a beauty and holistic therapist treating my clients in their own homes or local businesses. Always interested in building and growing my business, I have further trained in several holistic therapies, which include aromatherapy individual blends. I am also a qualified Tai Chi for Health instructor with my own classes in Skipton, Craven and Keighley, support local community wellbeing organisations providing healthy lifestyle activities. My family, friends and clients have always helped and encourage me with my career choice, offering to be guinea pigs when I have required models for new treatments and accepting my flexible working hours. In the past I offered my expertise as a volunteer complementary therapist, aromatherapy practitioner at the local wellbeing cancer support centre in Skipton. I have also held the volunteer position of chairlady of SWIFT (Support Women Inspiring Friendship Training) a local (Skipton Craven Keighley) small business networking group formally known as WorcNet supporting small businesses, charities, local organisations and groups. Due to the pandemic the networking group no longer exists.

Field Breaks Art

field breaks art

Chesterfield

Field Breaks started out in the Autumn of 2007 to provide a selection of professionally tutored illustration workshops in the Peak District. This followed the demise of similar workshops in the area and filled a much needed gap for people wanting short affordable art breaks in botanical illustration and landscape painting. Such was the demand for this provision that over the following years the programme has been extended to include a greater selection of courses and venues, along with a growing number of specialist professional tutors. 2020 and the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic saw great challenges to all small businesses, including Field Breaks, with courses rescheduled for safer times. This was an opportunity however for founder member Sue to think seriously about her achievements, goals and ambitions, and after some deliberation decided to pass the business on to fellow artist Hazel. Along with many happy memories of running Field Breaks, Sue is enjoying the opportunity to start new projects. With the handover, Hazel decided to revitalise the old website - "I'm re-dressing the shop window while it's quiet!" Following suggestions from her peers, this also gave her the opportunity to re-think and amend the name from "Field Breaks" to "Field Breaks Art", which lends more focus under the artwork umbrella. We hope you like it! After the extended lockdown, Hazel added a new range of on-line mini workshops in the Spring of 2021, which were a lovely way to keep connected with other artists and share ideas. From July 2021 we were once again able to offer in-person workshops so the focus was to deliver quality tutor-led courses while maintaining a level of safety, including reduced class numbers to enable social distancing. In 2022 we are pleased to be able to offer another full programme of workshops in drawing, painting, botanical illustration, natural history, landscape, abstract, and mixed media including textiles and craft workshops in batik, jewellery making, lacemaking and felting. Please click on the Courses button to see a listing of all our 2022 workshops. Materials are provided for many of the workshops with a list of what to bring to workshops under the course details. We look forward to meeting you for a wonderful year of art and crafts in 2022.

Brainnit

London

Our parent company Brainnit was founded by a group of well-known academics, technocrats and creative wizards to provide quality education with the support of modern digital technology. We are a truly global company with a diverse workforce and offices in London, Dubai and India. This creative and academic fusion gave birth to Attaiin, a digital e-learning platform that combines world-class technology, academic learning and IGCSE assessment. Attaiin is a one-stop education solution with exciting video content, simulations, animations, lessons and assessments for all subjects. Our vision was to create a world-class digital teaching platform that would support and extend your child’s learning. Under the guidance of our expert academic team, who are natives of the UK, your child can confidently prepare for examinations to achieve their highest scores at IGCSE. Attaiin’s unique assessment module allows students to be assessed by expert teachers and IGCSE examiners. Attain covers all Key Stages of the British Curriculum from ages 5 to 18 This journey began because we wanted the best education for our children. We think your children deserve it too. We were tired of the education lottery where the quality of teaching could vary drastically within a school and mere luck decides if your child is placed with the best teachers. We were tired of The variable quality of teaching within schools A one-size-fits-all education model Students struggling with homework tasks Expensive private tuition Unimaginative and boring content Being unable to find native-English speaking tutors Our product works in harmony with your child. Today’s students are doing things differently from any previous generation. Did you know that most teenagers choose to study between 10.00 pm and midnight? The time when schools are closed and most of us have gone to bed. Students are choosing new ways to study and learn. They can watch Attaiin videos on their laptops or ipads at home or on their phones on the bus or walking to school. They can study their entire course through our content without even going to school. Whilst we are not replacing school, we do provide students with opportunities to learn that align with the up-to-date research on the teenage brain and lifestyle. Just because your son or daughter has double Chemistry at 8.00 am on a Monday morning, doesn’t mean to say they are in the right frame of mind to study ionic equations.

Institute of Revenues Rating and Valuation

institute of revenues rating and valuation

London

In January 1882, the rate collectors of Holborn invited their Metropolitan colleagues to a meeting to discuss the effect a projected reorganisation of London local government might have on their jobs and prospects. Some eighty officers attended and at a further meeting on the 25th February it was decided to form, with effect from the 1st April 1882, the Metropolitan Rate Collectors Association. As membership grew, the title was subsequently changed to the Association of Rate Collectors and Assistant Overseers in 1911. Changes in legislation resulted in a further change in title and in 1927, the Incorporated Association of Rating and Valuation Officers was established. The association was more commonly known as the Rating & Valuation Association (RVA) and no further change to the title was made until January 1990 when, with the impending introduction of Community Charge and National Non-Domestic Rate, we became known as the Institute of Revenues, Rating and Valuation (IRRV). A key aim of the Institute is to support its members’ professional and personal development and the sharing of best practice. We keep our members informed of current issues through our magazines, publications and a comprehensive website. Our conferences and meetings offer opportunities for networking with other professionals from the UK and overseas whilst the Forum Service continues to attract new organisations each year; the current membership now exceeding 200. We seek to influence the course of legislative and professional matters through dialogue with government bodies and other professional organisations and through commissioning and conducting original research. This is led by the Institute’s three Faculty Boards; Local Taxation and Revenues, Benefits and Valuation. The Institute has a membership of over 2,400 and offers a range of qualifications covering its professional fields. It is a nationally approved awarding body for its vocational and examination-based qualifications. Each year, in excess of 300 students sit our examinations and vocational assessments. Successful students join the thousands of IRRV qualified professionals currently working in both the public and private sector within the fields of revenues, benefits and valuation. IRRV qualifications and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) scheme are designed to meet the needs of members at every stage of their careers. A thriving network of Associations is one of the IRRV’s main strengths. Our Associations organise programmes of professional and social activities that take place regionally and provide the opportunity for all members to become more involved in the work of the Institute.
