AHPs’ Day, Thursday 14 October, is an annual opportunity for us to come together and celebrate being part of the AHP family, whilst also giving us an opportunity to showcase to our NELFT colleagues the impact we make to the delivery of high quality care.

October is Black History Month and here at NELFT we're excited to mark this important month with celebration events, highlights on the work of our EMN and profiles of our NELFT colleagues. We will be hearing from network members and some of our allies, who will be sharing around this year’s theme ‘Proud to be’.

NELFT are pleased to announce the appointment of Julie Jaye Charles as our very first Board Advisor and Patient and Carer Advocacy & Co-production Lead.

The Ethnic Minority Staff Network were honoured to host a virtual visit from Liz Fenton, RN, QN, Deputy Chief Nurse at Health Education England.

World Suicide Prevention Day is held on 10 September each year by the International Association for Suicide Prevention. Each year has a different theme and focus to bring to light a specific aspect of suicide prevention. 

We are proud to announce that work-life balance charity, Working Families, has awarded our organisation a place on its prestigious and competitive list of the top family-friendly employers in the UK.
