At NHS Brent we take equality seriously, both in terms of the services we provide to the community and as an employer. We are committed to eliminating unlawful discrimination, promoting equality and reducing health inequalities.

This scheme covers the six key equality strands, namely - age, disability, gender (including transgender), race, religion and faith and sexual orientation.

This document sets out how NHS Brent intends to work towards ensuring that all strands of equality are integral to how we both commission and provide services and in building a workforce which uses, in full, the skills and talents of our staff, both current and prospective.

Our Single Equality Scheme is an evolving document and we welcome the views of our staff and members of our local community. We will share this document with the wide range of stakeholders and community networks that we engage with.  Please forward any comments/suggestions to Nolan Victory, Equality and Diversity Advisor at NHS Brent, Wembley Centre for Health and Care, 116 Chaplin Road, Wembley, Middlesex HA0 4UZ or by email to: nolan.victory@brentpct.nhs.uk
