The BBC’s Extend scheme was recently recognised at the Business Disability Forum Awards for its contribution to more inclusive recruitment across the BBC. Created in collaboration with the BBC’s Project Managers for Inclusion, Employee Resource Groups and Talent Acquisition Leads, BBC Extend ringfences permanent and fixed-term roles for people who are deaf, disabled or neurodivergent. Alongside ringfencing roles, the scheme supports hiring teams to make recruitment processes more accessible and inclusive. Since launching, Extend has helped increase the number of disabled people across the BBC and continues to support wider progress in accessibility and inclusive hiring. “The Extend scheme is about building confidence, trust and a culture where everyone feels welcomed and valued every day. By continuing to invest in Extend and making it an integral part of our recruitment process, the BBC sends a clear and optimistic message: inclusion is part of how we do things here. We are kind, accountable and, most importantly, we are One BBC.” – Helen Shill, Workplace Adjustment Lead [Image description: A group of four people stand on a stage at an awards event, posing in front of large illuminated screens displaying the text “Recruitment Award” and a BBC winner graphic.] #ThisIsYourBBC #LifeAtTheBBC #BBCExtend

On the eve of his 100th birthday on 8 May, Sir David Attenborough shares a message for us all 💚⁣ 📸 BBC/Passion Planet/Joe Loncraine

Greetings fellow entrepreneurs, it's Amanda here. Thought I’d just take a moment to share with you a quick reflection on running a business / brand / vibe in the modern market.    If I could just be real with you guys for one moment. It’s a slog, isn’t it? Sometimes I have to ask; is the juice really worth the squeeze?    Well, the answer to my own question is: yes, yes it is. Business wasn’t meant to be easy. That’s why it’s called busy-ness. After nearly two years disrupting the interiors / wellness / lifestyle market – I’ve learnt a few lessons which I’d love to share with you.    1. Know your customers. Which for me, is know yourself. The question I always ask myself is: would I be drawn to this rug / retinol cream / resistance band*? Because if I’m drawn to it– then I can be confident that other people will be. Because other people are obsessed with me, and those people are 100% of my customers.    2. The hustle is real. You’ve got to put the work in, people. I post up to four posts A WEEK. Most of which are photographs of my coffee, but I turn up for it.    3. Have a business plan. My plan is co-lab this year, then go PLC, then aim to float myself by 2030. Simple – straightforward and sexy.    4. Talk to those who have done it. I’m constantly DM-ing successful business leaders to swap tips. So far I have only heard back from Karren Brady, and that was to ask me to stop messaging her.    5. Invest in yourself. For me that’s me time. But for you that could be you time. I find I do my best thinking on the Peloton with my girl Katy Wong for a thirty minute HIIT and Hills. For you it might be watching my insta posts. The point is, you do you. And if you can’t do you, do me.    *these are just a few things I’m interested in, but not all. Other things I’m also interested include: protein, city breaks to Europe, Harry Styles and Zoe Kravitz’s relationship, Botivo cocktails and the climate crisis).

“I recently joined BBC Studios, an organisation I've imagined working for... quite some time. I’ve felt a bit like a kid in a candy store walking around the building, meeting passionate, enthusiastic [and all-round really cool] colleagues, seeing the *many* awards on the shelves and photos of shows and presenters I've grown up with. It's been a prolonged pinch me-moment for sure! 📸 by Chloe, Junior Production Coordinator - BBC Studios #LifeAtBBCStudios #BTS #ThisIsYourBBC
