In preparation for Black History Month which takes place in October, NHS Employers have pulled together a list of resources and activities that may inspire you to run a local campaign within your own organisation.

In the NHS, 6.1 per cent of staff identify as being from a black background. Black History Month has been recognised for many years with a month-long programme of inspirational events and workshops - honouring the achievements, culture, and rich history of black people.

They have published a summary of some of the activities that NHS organisations are doing locally, along with some workforce statistics and a list of resources and organisations which may be of interest.
