Local grassroots organisations are being encouraged to register interest for grant funding to tackle ethnic and racial health inequalities across England.
Responding to the final report and recommendations published today, an NHS Race and Health Observatory spokesperson, said:
Long standing barriers that prevent Black, Asian and ethnic minority communities from accessing timely NHS dementia care and support will be examined as part of a new major review.
Responding to the recommendations of Lord Mann’s review published today, Professor Habib Naqvi, chief executive, NHS Race and Health Observatory, said:
In an unprecedented move, national UK health and social care regulators including the Care Quality Commission (CQC), General Medical Council (GMC) and Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) have today committed & signed up to nine new shared anti-racism principles to help tackle longstanding racism experienced by health and social care staff.
More than 150 senior leaders including former and current chief executives, board members and directors will join a leadership event designed to help NHS organisations confront, address and implement race equality in the workplace.
A groundbreaking new national programme designed to address stark ethnic inequalities found in maternal and neonatal care has been established between NHS England and the NHS Race and Health Observatory.
