Our Community Promise
Health inequalities have long been a concern, but the Covid-19 pandemic was a stark reminder of the challenges which exist in our communities. This is why the Promise is based on five key pillars – employment, education, economy, environment, and inequalities. The work of our Health Inequalities Programme Board will provide valuable insight and guidance on this front too.
Healthcare is the essence of what we do, with a focus on constantly working to develop in relation to innovation and improving patient and staff experience, but we are also a major employer, a major buyer and user of products and services, and we are very conscious of our carbon footprint and our responsibility to look after our precious environment.
Our efforts so far have been recognised with a string of national and international CSR (corporate and social responsibility) awards, but we know there is much more to do.
