Delsion

What Delsion does

Delsion is a Wales-based (Swansea, UK) people and development consultancy founded in 2015 by Julian, a former senior HR professional who became disabled following a brain injury. The firm operates in two tightly linked service lines: Learning & Development (covering induction, communications, change management, HR training, customer service, team building, and leadership development) and Diversity & Inclusion (D&I), where it delivers a portfolio of proprietary inclusion models and programmes branded under Welsh names — Seren, Cwtch, Keep, Teg, TegAI, Perthyn@, Wales.inc, Leading through Inclusion, Journeys to Inclusion, and Positive about Potential.

Delsion monetises exclusively through professional services engagements sold direct to organisational clients via a sales-led, contact-driven motion (phone and email enquiry through delsion.co.uk). Pricing is bespoke and not publicly disclosed; engagements range from one-off training workshops to multi-year contracts covering strategy, policy review, KPI design, audits, supply chain/procurement assessment, and learning framework design. The Wales.inc accreditation programme adds a recognisable, recurring revenue layer aimed specifically at Welsh businesses, while the TegAI tool introduces a software-adjacent component to the recruitment workflow.

The company is small (1–10 employees), founder-owned, and privately held with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or subsidiaries. It markets itself heavily on the founder's lived experience as a disabled leader, multi-award recognition (CIPD, Shaw Trust Power 100, Valuable 500, RIDI, Inclusive Companies, IoD Wales), and its position as the first Disability Owned Business Enterprise (DOBE) outside the USA. Geographic focus is the UK, with Welsh-rooted branding and initiatives (including the Wales.inc accreditation and the founding of the Disabled and Neurodivergent Business Alliance, DNBA).
