Barry Boffy is a Senior Global DE&I Consultant with FAIRER Consulting and has worked in the ED&I field for nearly 25 years. Spending most of his professional career working in policing, he left the service in March 2022 but has continued to campaign for better diversity and inclusion practices in policing and the criminal justice sector. He is proud to have been a Judge for the National No2H8 Crime Awards since 2017. Barry was honoured to have been presented with a Highly Commended ‘Julie Barnes Frank Award for Excellence in LGBT Policing’ and was announced as the winner of the Inclusive Companies Awards ‘Diversity Champion Award’ for the Public Sector in 2018. In early 2019, Barry accepted an invitation to join the Board of the UK’s Institute of Equality & Diversity Professionals (IEDP). Speaking of the Pride 365 initiative, Barry recognises the privilege of being able to be his authentic self all year round, and the platform he has to be able to encourage true LGBT+ inclusion alongside such an inspirational group of role models.
