In honour of UK National Inclusion Week, The Access Bank UK Limited embraced cultural diversity, and unity in the workplace through a vibrant celebration. The staff came together to share their cultural heritage by bringing traditional dishes to the office and wearing national attire, fostering a sense of inclusion and belonging.
The event was a feast of flavours, with employees contributing homemade specialties representing their diverse backgrounds. Dishes ranged from Nigerian jollof rice, Oha soup, and Colombian papa rellena to Indian green chutney sandwiches, Sri Lankan biryani, Spanish omelette, Portuguese delicacies, Polish snacks, and British Victoria sponge cake and cupcakes.
