"Nestlé PTC Confectionery engaged with Gamal Turawa, 'G', to be the closing speaker following a month long communication and events plan focusing on inclusion & diversity. Having seen G speak at a Stonewall Conference the previous year, we were keen to engage with G and allow him to share his inspiring story and his radiating passion and enthusiasm with our team. G did not disappoint and received excellent feedback from the attendees, who were blown away by not only his story but the way he shared it – with humour, humility and vulnerability. Sometimes the power of storytelling can be the difference between engaging hearts and minds and in this case G really helped us on our journey to building awareness, as we progress on our path to creating a culture where our people feel that they belong. Thank you G!"

About Gamal Turawa

UK's first openly Black, gay police officer
Subject of Bafta-winning short film 'The Black Cop'
Founder of Purple Frog Connections, promoting diversity and inclusion
Gamal Turawa, or 'G' as he prefers to be called, was the UK's first openly Black, gay police officer. Growing up in the UK care system as a foster child in the 60's and later as a survivor of physical child abuse, Gamal faced great adversity, which did not stop when he joined London's Metropolitan Police Service.
Gamal's life story has been told in the Bafta-winning short film 'The Black Cop'. In this heart-rending documentary, Gamal explores his memories of the racial profiling, homophobia and harassment he faced in his early career.
Today, Gamal is the founder, managing director, and lead facilitator of Purple Frog Connections, where he shares his remarkable journey and expertise. He facilitates critical discussions on diversity and inclusion, encouraging more open and courageous conversations. Gamal's role is pivotal in inspiring teams towards meaningful change and fostering inclusive environments. His story is a powerful example of resilience, self-discovery, and the impact of transformative dialogue.
