Unsung heroes of inclusion: Employee Network Awards 2026 shortlist revealed. 18th September 2026 Employee networks and inclusion leaders from some of the UK's biggest employers have been named as finalists for the Employee Network Awards 2026. These awards recognise and celebrate the unsung heroes of inclusion - people and groups driving meaningful change in workplace culture and inclusion. Headline sponsored by Haleon, the awards celebrate the employee networks, Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) and individuals working to strengthen inclusion, influence workplace policy and improve the employee experience. This year's finalists represent organisations including Adobe, Barclays, Barratt Redrow, BDO UK, Deutsche Bank, EDF, Eurostar, ScottishPower, Sky, Virgin Media O2 and Warner Bros. Discovery. The winners will be announced on Friday 25 September 2026 at the InterContinental London Park Lane, with Dawn Butler MP returning to host the ceremony. The evening will also feature a special live performance from Leee John, lead singer of British soul and funk group Imagination, whose hits include Just an Illusion, Body Talk and Music and Lights. The awards shine a spotlight on the often behind-the-scenes work of employee networks and ERGs, many of which are led by employees alongside their day jobs. Across 14 award categories, finalists are being recognised for their work supporting LGBTQIA+ colleagues, ethnic minority employees, women, disabled people, families and carers, and workplace wellbeing. Inspiring employees driving inclusion. The awards also recognise inspirational role models, network leads, executive sponsors and inclusion leaders who are helping to embed inclusion across their organisations. The evening culminates in the Network of Networks award, which brings together the winning employee networks to compete for the event's overall accolade. "The standard of this year's nominations has been incredible. Employee networks are doing some of the most important work taking place inside organisations, often led by people doing it alongside their day jobs because they genuinely want to make their workplaces better," said Kat Parsons, CEO of Diversity Umbrella, organiser of the Employee Network Awards. "These awards give that work the recognition it deserves. Our finalists aren't just talking about inclusion; they're creating practical change that has a real impact on people's working lives. We can't wait to celebrate their achievements in September." The Employee Network Awards 2026 are headline sponsored by Haleon, with category sponsorship from giffgaff, Laing O'Rourke, Centrica, Paramount and HSBC Innovation Banking.
