We are proud to announce that BM Ambulance Group has become a signatory of the UN Standards  of Conduct for Business, helping to tackle discrimination against Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex (LGBTI) people.

These are not only a transformative set of guidelines focusing on rights and fair treatment of the LGBTI community, but a call to action for businesses to actively support and protect the rights of these individuals. They outline practical steps to ensure everyone – regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity – is respected and valued in the workplace.

Our MD Craig Bickers said “By adopting these standards, we are taking proactive steps to combat discrimination, promote diversity, and foster a culture of acceptance and understanding. Embracing diversity is not just about doing the right thing; it’s about creating a vibrant, inclusive culture where every colleague can thrive. A diverse workforce not only drives innovation but opens new perspectives and enriches our work environment. By endorsing these principles, we affirm our dedication to creating a supportive and inclusive environment for all colleagues, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression – taking a further step towards a more inclusive, equitable, and respectful workplace where everyone can feel safe and empowered.”
