National Nuclear Laboratory supports WiN UK with strategic direction and annual funding. Olivia Thompson, NNL Head of Skills and Development, is a member of WiN UK’s Strategic Advisory Group. NNL’s funding has enabled the development of this website and other activities related to WiN UK becoming an independent organisation.
This partnership leverages the knowledge, skills and capabilities of each organisation, with work underway to deliver a co-ordinated, sector-wide approach to diversity and inclusion. This comes at a time when ambitious plans for nuclear, outlined in the British Energy Security Strategy, puts the sector in prime position as a powerful engine for job creation and economic growth.
Over an initial five years, the partners will engage in a number of wide-ranging strategic initiatives to boost diversity. From careers outreach activity designed to attract girls and women into the industry to the development of female leaders within the workforce. The collaboration represents a major push for the attraction, retention and development of skills within the UK’s nuclear industry.
Further details regarding the scope of the partnership are covered in a Memorandum of Understanding.
