Diversity and inclusion

At Animal Friends we believe that together, we are stronger.

At Animal Friends, we aim to foster a culture that respects everyone and their unique perspective, encouraging our colleagues to bring their authentic selves to work, and let their individuality shine through. We understand that by harnessing our differences and learning from each other, we can continue to grow both as a business, a team, and as individuals.

Gender pay gap report

“The Gender Pay Gap Report provides us with a valuable snapshot-in-time which helps to measure our gender diversity progress, but it does not reflect our full commitment to our colleagues, which goes far deeper. Since becoming a part of Pinnacle Pet Group in 2023, we hope to extend our insights even further, pulling from valuable experience across the Group, as well as being able to offer our own best practices in return.
 
“Our approach to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging is about creating a culture that is truly equitable, because at Animal Friends we are passionate about our colleagues’ unique stories, backgrounds, and lived experiences, and believe that it is these differences that make us ‘Stronger Together’.”
 
Richard Mills, Chief Executive Officer
