'West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health Care Partnership Review Report: Tackling health inequalities for Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities and colleagues'

COVID-19 has highlighted health inequalities faced by Black Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities and our colleagues, and the impact of the pandemic of systemic racism on people’s lives.

The West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health and Care Partnership recognised the opportunity to address these issues, establishing a commission independently chaired by Professor Dame Donna Kinnair, Chief Executive and General Secretary of the Royal College of Nursing, a leading figure in national health and care policy.

The review has been co-produced by leaders from NHS, local government and the VCS; informed by the voices of those with lived experience. The final report is launched late October, and this session presents a one off opportunity to hear from those involved about its findings and ask them questions about its impact and what next.
