At Gritty Talent we’ve spent three years working with talent from under-represented groups, as well as indies and broadcasters across the TV landscape, to design better ways to achieve diversity and inclusion.

As a result we’ve put together the Inclusion Accelerator programme to tackle the biggest challenges that productions face when actioning EDI.

    Using the expertise of Mel and Vicki at Gritty to create and understand our company survey around ED&I was incredibly helpful. 

    It has totally changed the game for us in how we understand and prioritise ED&I.  We have clear plans now on what areas we are focussing on and a clear way to monitor our progress in this area

    Working with Mel and the team at Gritty Talent on developing and delivering our pilot programme of Diversity Audits for Scottish indies has been a delight. It enabled us to be creative in our thinking and push the boundaries to devise a comprehensive 360 audit.

    It has resulted in companies identifying their strengths as well as those areas requiring further support to address the ongoing gaps in diversity, equality and inclusion. Gritty Talent’s approach and collaborative working ensured that our companies have workable roadmaps and action plans to steer them onto the next stage.
