Equality and diversity
Find out how we act on our commitments to promoting equality and valuing difference.
Our commitment to equality and diversity
We are committed to equality for our staff and patients. We recognise and value difference in its broadest sense.
Meeting your needs as a patient
If you require support attending one of your appointments, please contact us so we ensure your appointment or stay with us at the hospital meets your needs.
Equalities monitoring information
Equality legislation requires us to undertake monitoring. Monitoring is a process of collecting and analysing diversity data about patients and staff. It can help with assessing how fair an organisation is.
Staff networks
We are committed to equality. Our staff run networks include those for LGBTQI+, Disability, Black, Asian and minority ethnic, carers and armed forces. All staff are welcome to join.
Cultural Calendar
Never miss major cultural and religious events happening locally, nationally or internationally again, and view upcoming staff network meetings.
Armed forces
We support our Armed Forces and commit to helping members of the armed forces community to have fair access to our services.
External support services for those who have experienced a hate crime
If you are a victim of hate crime or know someone who is, contact the various support agencies to help and offer guidance.
