National Inclusion Week 2020
Staff and students are invited to celebrate ‘everyday inclusion’ during an annual awareness event.
A host of events will be taking place online as part of National Inclusion Week 2020
Plans for Leeds to mark National Inclusion Week (NIW), which runs from Monday 28 September to Sunday 4 October, aim to promote inclusion in all its forms, and provides a great chance to share inspiring practices and ideas.
This year’s theme is ‘Each one, reach one’ – a message focusing on the opportunities we have to connect with other people.
