Staff and students were all asked if they would like to provide anonymous feedback in the form of post-it notes placed on large pieces of paper in the foyer of the department. Engagement with the event was very good and, with some additional motivation provided by the offer of free chocolate, produced over 100 comments and ideas that are being considered and taken forward by the Inclusivity Group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday 22nd March the Physics Inclusivity Group held their fifth annual \u2018pulse check\u2019.
