What's a 'Happy' Workplace?

Join Us

An illustrated infographic poster with a gardening theme on a light purple background. At the top centre, a dark green shape contains a white outline icon of two hands holding up a circle with three people inside and arrows, and the text "Become the change". Below this, a purple watering can with a "Equity in employment Active inclusion" badge pours water droplets onto a large, two-leaf green sprout growing from a mound of soil at the bottom. A garden fork is positioned to the right of the soil mound. On the left, text reads: 'We do not need to be 'made' employable, we are employable'. The words "Organisations, Systems, Personal" are written in a list on the soil mound.

Cultivating Real Inclusion

True equity isn’t about fixing the individual; it’s about nurturing the environment. The illustration above reminds us that talent and value are already there—it is our organisations, systems, and personal mindsets that require the work to ensure everyone can thrive.

  • The Message: Stop asking people to ‘fit’ into broken systems.
  • The Goal: Active inclusion and employment equity.
  • The Action: Become the change by tending to the soil, not just the sprout.

‘We do not need to be “made” employable, we are employable.’

An informational infographic poster in shades of purple. It features a quote: "'We do not have to be 'made' employable, we are employable.'" Three numbered steps listed are Learn Together, Future Scan, and Focus On Capacity. There's a "#WaysOfWorking" circular graphic on the right showing a group of figures with arms raised in celebration. At the bottom are headshots and quotes from three women: - Julie: "We believe in supporting each other to find work we want..." - Sally: "We are working on a capacity and person-centred model..." - Raisa: "We can support you to learn how systems create barriers..." The website "www.happyworkplace.uk" is at the top left, and the email "team@activeinclusion.info" is at the bottom. A small watering can icon with "Active Inclusion" is in the upper corner.

Be the Change: Redefining What it Means to be Employable

At Active Inclusion, we are shifting the narrative. For too long, the focus has been on ‘fixing’ individuals to make them fit into rigid structures. We believe a different truth: you do not have to be ‘made’ employable, you already are.

Our mission is to move away from outdated barriers and toward a #WaysOfWorking model that focuses on capacity, community, and systemic change.

How We Work Together

We have three core ways to create a more equitable world of work:

  1. Learn Together: We grow through shared experiences and collective knowledge.
  2. Future Scan: We look ahead to identify what is coming and how we can adapt.
  3. Focus On Capacity: We champion working in a capacity-focused way.

Our Three-Tiered Approach

Change happens at every level. Meet the team members leading these vital areas:

  • Personal (Julie): We provide a peer community where we support each other to find the work we want, gain skills, and manage our mental health and wellbeing.
  • Organisations (Sally): We support organisations in adopting person-centred models, creating environments where everyone has the space to thrive.
  • Systems (Raisa): We identify the systemic barriers—outdated tech or inefficient processes—and we work to dismantle them.

Join the Movement

Are you ready to be part of a community that values your natural worth? Whether you are looking for a supportive peer group or you represent an organisation ready to evolve, we want to hear from you.

Let’s cultivate a happy workplace, together.
