Yesterday, colleagues from @wdesnews attended the #DisabilitySummit22 to speak about the importance of turning data into action, and heard about the significance of continuing to listen to disabled staff to create a disability positive NHS.

@ianbirrell My experience of working with user-led groups like @DandA_inclusion @EmpowermentPas1 @NHS_DNDN @disableddoctors @dyslexiainstit1 there are people developing real support & solutions including networks in @NHS_HealthEdEng - what we need is resources & joined up action @SDMoore77

Pilot of ⁦@EmpowermentPas1⁩ with support of ⁦@NHS_HealthEdEng⁩ we are able to provide licences for health learners transitioning into ⁦@NHSEngland⁩ : driving down attrition means being proactive on disability inclusion ⁦@NHSConfed⁩ ⁦@ChrisHopsonNHS⁩

Fantastic to hear from our first speaker of the day @TommyShakes about the impact of #Covid19 on disabled people. "We need to communicate in accessible formats with clearer messaging so that everybody understands what they must do to stay safe" #UKDHM #DisabilitySummit2022

The brilliant @deirdrecostigan says "It’s important to create a culture where staff feel comfortable declaring their disability. In one survey 67% of staff were worried their employer may think they are no longer capable of doing their job" #DisabilitySummit22

"It's so good to see a room full of such a diverse population of our workforce" A fantastic morning at our #DisabilitySummit2022, sharing learning, experiences and support for colleagues with a disability. #UKDHM #DisabilityHistoryMonth 👇
