Fairer award for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

This award was given for our work alongside the two other West Yorkshire mental health trusts – Leeds and York Partnership Foundation Trust and South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust – to trial new and innovate approaches to ensure that we have a diverse workforce reflective of the local communities we serve. Specifically, the work aimed to reduce barriers and increase awareness of job roles to diverse groups, recruiting locally and supporting the reduction of health inequalities.
