Initially, a mayoral reception will be organised later in the year for ethnically diverse staff along with a number of other initiatives which are currently in the planning stage.

Recently the Western Trust agreed to the formation of the network which is acting as a channel of communication between staff from diverse backgrounds and those who are not originally from the north west and the local health authority’s management and senior leadership team.
