Share your story!
Get involved
If you are part of any of the under-represented groups, we would love to hear your story.
The purpose of the campaign is to give voice to your experience and to highlight your success stories.
We hope that by amplifying your journey, we can inspire more under-represented people into the built environment and change the face of the sector.
