The London Workforce Equality & Inclusion Team was established in 2020 to implement the recommendations of the London Workforce Race Strategy. The London Workforce Race Strategy, published in October 2020, sets out a clear and powerful vision, outlining the challenge and complexity involved in addressing race inequality in London and provides 15 evidence-based recommendations on how London’s NHS can make a significant and tangible difference to the experiences of its BME workforce, while recognising that this will require a long-term commitment.

The London Workforce Equality & Inclusion Team’s remit is to support regional systems and initiatives and is expanding from race to include other protected characteristics and intersectional EDI programmes.
