Carlisle Support Services is now White Ribbon Accredited

Carlisle Support Services is committed to working towards ending men’s violence against women by becoming White Ribbon Accredited, aligning with White Ribbon UK, the leading charity engaging men and boys to end violence against women. 

As a White Ribbon Accredited organisation, Carlisle Support Services will deliver a comprehensive multi-year plan to transform our staff culture, systems, and the wider community we operate in. White Ribbon Accreditation is an opportunity to make our workplace a safe place for men and women, and to upskill our staff to become changemakers.

Some of the actions that will be taken include the development of a Domestic Abuse Policy for employees, appointing Ambassadors within departments to advocate positive attitudes and behaviour, and raising awareness within local communities or with partners.

Allan Gregory, Director of Transport Policing and Security of Carlisle Support Services said,

“White Ribbon is completing incredible work to shed light on the unfortunate truth of unwanted sexual behaviour, harassment, and abuse that women and girls encounter nationwide every day of the year.

We are proud to collaborate with them to alter that reality – and our White Ribbon Accreditation signifies our dedication to fostering positive change within the communities we serve and ensuring that we maintain inclusive workplaces where everyone feels a sense of belonging.”

Anthea Sully, Chief Executive of White Ribbon UK said,

“White Ribbon Accredited Organisations can make a real difference towards ending violence against women by promoting a culture of respect and equality among their staff and wider communities. By raising awareness among employees, people can learn how to become allies and call out violent and abusive behaviour when they see it.  We are delighted to welcome Carlisle Support Services as one of our White Ribbon Accredited Organisations and are looking forward to working with them towards ending violence against women once and for all”.
