We’ve published our new strategy for more equitable healthcare, aligned to the government’s three shifts in the way healthcare is delivered – shifts towards community care, prevention, and digital. Read the strategy here:

Our new interactive digital platform is officially live! Visit the Health Action Resource Platform - The HARP present highlights of NHS data metrics across major health conditions by ethnicity and deprivation, presented at national, regional & ICS levels.

Join us as we transition from data to action, from action to impact, and from impact to accountability. Please book early to attend a roadshow in your region as spaces are limited🔗 #EthnicityPayGap.

We’re hosting a series of regional roadshows between 18 September and 27 November 2025, which will bring the healthcare system and allies together to confront and address equity in pay and progression for NHS staff from Black, Asian, and ethnic minority backgrounds.

During South Asian Heritage Month, we explore interventions to support the lives of others, including raising awareness around organ donation to save lives. View last week's webinar on the topic, chaired by our CEO @DrHNaqvi:

Our invitation to tender is now open for the development of a new co-production and community participation resource for the NHS. 🎉. We welcome partnership bids, with the deadline for submissions being 24 September. ℹ️

We are commissioning delivery of an open access photographic image library for mothers and babies with diverse skin tones with a variety of common medical conditions. The deadline to submit bids is 19 September, with funding of up to £100,000 available.

Nowhere are inequalities starker or more egregious than in maternal and neonatal health. But with medical training resources and public health information biased towards mothers and babies with light skin, we should not be surprised by negative outcomes. This must change. 🧵1/2
