TTG Media is proud to announce the shortlist for the first Travel Pride Champions, celebrating individuals across the industry working to improve diversity across the travel sector.
From launching women’s networks within their organisations to working to embrace different ethnicities and cultures within a company, as well as creating LGBT networks, TTG was bowled over the inspirational work of individuals throughout travel.
One shortlisted Travel Pride Champion was a victim of homophobia at his previous employer, but wanted to ensure no-one else ever had to go through the same experiences as him, and subsequently created an LGBT Employee Resource Group when he started at his new company.
Another developed a more inclusive offering for their company, creating LGBT-friendly tours, as well as Halal and Kosher restaurants.
Meanwhile another shortlisted Champion launched a women’s network, hosting regional events to embrace diversity across the UK.

The winning Travel Pride Champions will be named at this year’s Travel Pride after the TTG LGBT Conference.
