I don’t need to present the business case to you. You already know you need to do more about EDI. You’re looking for genuine change and real integrity, not just the performative, tick-box kind.
But then comes the 'deer in headlights' feeling: Where do we start? What if we get it wrong? What if there's a backlash?
And because you're stretched thin, it's easier for EDI to stay on the 'someday' list or as a series of well-intentioned, ad hoc actions.
I’m here to help you break that cycle and turn those good intentions into a strategic golden thread that actually delivers for your team and your community.
Strategic EDI that fits your capacity
I help you get your EDI joined-up and effective, focusing on the changes that make the biggest difference to your staff and your community.
Whether you’re looking for a long-term strategy or targeted training, we’ll focus on what’s practical and effective for where you are right now.

Want to dive deeper? Here's how you can work with me:
EDI Roadmap
The 8-week strategic foundation for your organisation.
Stop winging it. This is your expert-designed 3-year strategy and 1-year plan. I audit your systems, listen to your people, and deliver a board-ready plan with the "plug-and-play" templates you need to start implementing immediately.
Best for: Leaders ready to move past ad-hoc actions and weave EDI into the core fabric of their organisation.
Bespoke training
Practical learning for specific challenges.
If your team is struggling with a particular area—like spotting barriers for service users or knowing how to challenge microaggressions—I design interactive training focused on the "how" to give your team the confidence to take action in their day-to-day jobs.
Best for: Organisations with a specific "blocker" to achieving their existing EDI strategy.
Got something else in mind?
I’m a sucker for an exciting DEI project, so just try me! If it’s in my zone of genius and gives me tingles, I won’t be able to resist.
Here’s what other organisations have hired me for:
Support on retainer
One-off consultation on a specific issue
Policy review
Review of the team's EDI learning needs, providing a practical plan for in-house training and development.
Oh me? I’m Sumi (they/she)
I’ve been EDI-ing in some way or another for 20 years. A big chunk of that was in the charity sector, so I genuinely get the realities of your world, and I've seen what works and what definitely doesn't.
My job is to take the big, scary world of inclusion and translate it into a plan that makes sense for your staff and your community.
