Stonewall's Top 100 organisations

DD1s uni isn't on here,thank goodness,but my local council sees fit to pay for this nonsense whilst simultaneously not being able to pay for the things that should be central to its remit,and also teetering close to bankruptcy.🙄

That's quite the unfortunate homophone.

Employers can sign up to the government’s Disability Confident scheme for free. They then have to prove how disabled-friendly they are, but they don’t pay anyone AFAIK.

Yep NHS trust mangers should be reprimanded for spending on this racket

Exactly! And are there similar organizations that depend on payment to promote not discriminating against disabled employees? I think not but I am willing to have my mind opened!

Er St Mungo’s the homeless charity?

Fancy paying a load of money just to get a pointless pat on the head from the discredited numpties at Stonewall. What a waste of resources. If you’re a decent employer you’ll treat everyone fairly, you shouldn’t need a Cub Scout badge for that.

Oooh that's interesting. My org used to be on there and is pretty well captured. BUT doesn't appear at all this time. Intriguing.

Bloody Vodafone! Still, at least I saved a bit by stopping a couple of DDs to Bernardo's. That money can be better spent. And finally stopped my Labour Party subs. Dunno why I haven't done it before. I think I was waiting for an 'opportune' moment, but there isn't one, really.

Is there a list of companies and organisations which aren't pandering to this nonsense??

It's bloody hard job hunting and actively avoiding places where you won't have to bite your tongue when this comes up!!

Saw a fantastic opportunity last week and was all set to apply until I saw one of the benefits was that they'd pay for face surgery, voice coaching and gender reassignment surgery and they have special department headed by a man in a dress to promote trans inclusivity in the work place!

Fully expected mine to be there so that's a surprise. No doubt there will now be a big push though.

Been meaning to change away from HSBC since they were so horrific dealing with DF's estate. Double the reason now.

Not many businesses that rely on actual customers.

If I clock our more than 5 mins late ( usually due to the app not loading or customers leaving late so unable to complete close down as quickly) I have to pick a box to tick to provide an explanation.

Why aren't these services being held accountable for the length if time they take to do their job. Especially when filling out and submitting pages and pages of paperwork showing how much you throw women under a bus must be a full time job in itself.

It should be a criminal offence within itself to waste time on compiling lists of non crimes and unnecessary paperwork

Great use of taxpayers money... When waiting lists are huge, the roads are peppered with potholes and you can wait 36 hour for PC Plod to turn up.

DH's employer is top 10 but not surprised. All nhs bodies should be prohibited from spending money on this shite

There has been a huge drop off in NHS Trusts on that list.

Interested to see St Mungo's on there. Last time I dealt with them the staff were on strike to get a living wage. But apparently they have money for this.

I’m relieved that there aren’t as many universities as I had expected.

Shame on all the NHS trusts eg Birmingham Women and Children’s NHS trust (the irony) for wasting money on this bullshit.

"LGBTQ+ people lie at the heart of every community in the UK"

Wow, every community! Every single one. Even little rural villages with just a pub, a church and a village hall with a fortnightly coffee and cake morning.

Tesco were all over Stonewall just before I left in 2022. And I think mermaids were one of the nominated charities at that time.

Glad to see my current employer isn't on the list and checked https://sex-matters.org/campaigns/keeping-track-of-stonewall/
and noted they're not listed at all as subscribers which is unexpected.

This doesn't mean it's not totally captured though, with a million diversity folx milling around the lobby facilitating rainbow cake sales & manning the 'diversity tree' decoration table in the midst of a recruitment crisis where I'm covering 2 different roles for 3 people.

I'm tolerant because it's my work and I'm an adult. Sometimes this feels despite the D&I initiatives, not because of.

I’m embarrassed 😫

I used to work for one of the businesses ranked fairly highly and it does not surprise me at all. My observation as an employee was that they were always very keen to tick PR boxes about inclusivity/supporting women in business etc whilst in reality promotion policies etc worked against women who went on maternity leave and many of the (male) bosses sidelined any woman with small children (but not men with children of a similar age). Not long before I left there was a 'women in management' focus group set up in each office with the stated aim of addressing the fact that a high proportion of female staff left within 12 months of maternity leave and the very low % of senior roles held by women. In my office, a male manager was made chair of this (with no input from female staff) on the basis that he understood the challenges as a single parent himself. Whilst he was technically single and a parent, in fact he saw his child every other weekend and his ex wife did all the school admin/washing/sick days/school holiday child care etc. Despite lots of issues being raised, the official conclusion reported back was basically that women who have children change their priorities so there's no more action needed. Box ticked. Status quo upheld.
