A Place to Belong is an inclusive employment guide developed for Rochdale Borough Council to support staff and managers in creating a more inclusive and respectful workplace for LGBTQ+ colleagues.

Designed for both digital and print use, the guide combines practical guidance with clear, accessible content that encourages everyday inclusive behaviours. The visual identity uses a clean, professional base with bold colour and graphic elements inspired by Pride, signalling inclusion while remaining appropriate for a local authority setting.

The design strikes a balance between credibility and warmth, ensuring it appeals to colleagues at all levels and supports Rochdale Council’s commitment to creating a workplace where everyone feels valued and able to be themselves.
