Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 25, 2020 Journalists Share Posted June 25, 2020 The Diversity in Racing Steering Group’s (DiRSG) dedicated LGBT+ sub-group launched a new e-learning module to improve LGBT+ awareness and inclusion within British racing. The module has been included in the mandatory licensing courses at the British Racing School and National Horseracing College. The module, available for free via Racing2Learn, is accessible to anyone involved in the industry. The LGBT+ dedicated sub-group was developed following research which indicated many individuals who identified as a sexual minority did not feel comfortable ‘coming out’ at work, despite largely positive attitudes towards sexual minority individuals throughout the sport. The group aims to influence social change and promote a diverse and fully inclusive industry. Scheduled for later in the year, the LGBT+ network will offer a program designed for role models and allies to share their experiences and collaborate to support anyone in British racing who identifies as LGBT+. Comprised of members from across the racing industry, the initiative will offer updates via @RacingWithPride on Twitter.
