This is #LGBTplusHM and we've been talking to the Chair of our LGBTQ+ Staff Network, Matthew Miller-Swain. โI am proud that there is such a diverse workforce in the NHS, and many of my colleagues wear our rainbow badge, showing their support for our staff community," he says.
We're celebrating LGBT+ History Month throughout February.
โItโs important because it helps to create an open and transparent culture in healthcare, which can positively impact peopleโs morale and sense of belonging," says Andy Thompson of our LGBTQ+ Staff Network #LGBTplusHM
Weโre celebrating the start of LGBT+ History Month today ๐
โItโs a fantastic opportunity to recognise LGBTQ+ peopleโs important contribution to the fields of medicine and healthcare over many years,โ says Stewart Cambridge of our LGBTQ+ Staff Network. #UnderTheScope@LGBTHM
Itโs #LGBTHistoryMonth!
This month we're looking #UnderTheScope and shining light on the impact of LGBT individuals in medicine and healthcare, both past and present.
