Junior doctors will be striking from 7am on Thursday 27th June to 7am on Tuesday 2nd July. Please continue to attend your appointments unless you are contacted and told otherwise.
Everyone is welcome here.
In July 2024 we launched our new organisational values: kind, inclusive, ambitious, and one team. We have now launched our new Everyone is welcome here campaign, designed to recognise and celebrate the diversity of our staff and to respond to the discrimination faced by them in our hospitals and in our communities.
Everyone is welcome here has our values at its heart, promoting kindness and inclusivity in our hospitals and in the community, and celebrating the contributions of all our colleagues. We hope this campaign will have a positive influence on our staff, our patients and the public, who will support us to make sure that at NUH, everyone is welcome.
At Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (NUH), we believe in inclusion, and we value diversity. Out of more than 19,000 colleagues, 5,000 can trace their origins outside the UK.
Our colleagues come from more than 130 different countries and bring a wealth of knowledge, experience and skills. These colleagues contribute to every aspect of our services. These colleagues book appointments, greet patients, deliver meals, provide care, keep us safe through our security services and they are an intrinsic part of the leadership and operational management of the Trust.
Above all, colleagues from all backgrounds and across all characteristics provide care, day in day out. They are the backbone of NUH and of the NHS.
We stand together with our colleagues. We are clear that our strength lies in our diversity. Every individual, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation or background, deserves to be treated with respect and dignity.
Discrimination of any kind and in any form will not be tolerated at NUH. We are taking steps to support and protect our employees. We will use our policies and procedures to their fullest extent, and we will work with our partners, including the police, to address racism and other forms of discriminatory behaviour in our hospitals. We will work tirelessly to make NUH a haven of care, healing, and peace.
