Bridging the Gap Between Inclusion Policy and Lived Experience
get-inclusive has a clear mission: to ensure that people living with long-term health conditions are fully supported to thrive within equitable and high-performing workplaces.
We achieve this by working at two critical levels, empowering individuals through coaching to build confidence and self-advocacy, while equipping organisations with the understanding, capability and practical tools needed to create meaningful, sustained inclusion.
We recognise that policies and values alone are not enough; inclusion must be brought to life through everyday leadership behaviours, conversations and decisions. True inclusion is a shared responsibility consistently modelled, supported, and sustained across the organisation to enable people to perform, contribute and thrive.
Grounded in principles of fairness, equity and justice, get-inclusive is committed to ensuring that no individual is disadvantaged at work due to a long-term health condition.

Nicki's condition is largely invisible. This means she intimately understands the subtle yet constant internal dialogue professionals experience when deciding whether to disclose a health condition in high-performance environments.
No one may explicitly discourage disclosure. The pressure is often quieter than that. This work is not theoretical for us. It is personal. It is strategic. And it is long overdue.
