Together with Terrence Higgins Trust 💪 We have partnered with THT to continuously shape a positive culture. This partnership is just the start of our journey with THT.

This is an important day for THT, Next, the LGBT+ and wider community as it help raise awareness and support for people who live with HIV.

For International Men's Day 2020 we are encouraging all our people and you to Say More Than OK to support mental health and wellbeing. Taking a few extra moments to ask more than 'you ok?' could open the door to a conversation that someone might really need to help with their mental wellbeing. Some of our men from around the business volunteered to discuss their personal experiences or views regarding mental health for International Men's Day! We want all our employees to feel able to be creative, productive and engaged. Next is an inspiring, exciting and rewarding place to work and by helping our employees to maintain positive mental wellbeing, we know they will also help us to be successful.
The culture at Next is engaging and inclusive. We have made some huge strides over the past years to listen and continual improve the culture for Next IT and across the business. Hear from our people, first hand, what it means to have a positive and supportive culture at Next. We've created a network of people that are not just colleagues but friends too. We treat everyone the same regardless of their race or gender. We support our peoples and their wellbeing. So much so, that we have created a the Next Wellbeing Charter that's support by our Mental Health First Aiders. We know if we look after our people and build an environment and a business that is inclusive and positive then we will get the best out of them.
