Richard comments that:

"I am really excited to be a Project 1000 Role Model because I believe everyone should feel supported in their workplace and have the opportunity to thrive regardless of their background. It's not enough just to stand on the side-lines, we all have to play our part to promote diversity and inclusion, both at work and in wider society. I want to be a visible ally to the LGBT+ community and I hope this will inspire others to do the same".
