Hayley Meek

As Co-Chair of Proud@Shell UK Network, Hayley led training for offshore and onsite supervisors to explore DEI and created a safe space to share learning and experiences, reflecting on what a leader needs to create the best possible space for all. She facilitated conversations de-stigmatising mental health at work and on assets, particularly for those in the LGBTQ+ community, sharing her journey and building interactive resilience workshops. Hayley also helped develop the Aberdeen Inclusion Plan by challenging senior U.K. leaders and embedding DEI and LGBTQ+ representation as part of business to drive real change, which senior leaders fully endorsed. She has facilitated inclusive parenting workshops that focus on supporting parents of LGBTQ+ children and fostering safe spaces for parents to ask questions. She leads conversations and brings together other internal groups across race, gender, and disabilities to highlight shared challenges and commonalities. She singlehandedly organised Grampian Pride march for Shell Aberdeen with Upstream Shell leaders championing and taking part!
