Reflections on the digital journey across Frimley ICS
Sam Burrows, chief transformation and digital officer at Frimley ICS, reflects on the systems digital transformation journey and the strong role partnerships have played in their digital achievements.
Empowering leaders to talk about race with confidence
Despite successive initiatives, NHS data continues to show ongoing racial injustice affecting staff, patients and service users.
This programme offers practical support through knowledge sharing, case studies, resources and events — helping you take action in areas such as:
- Strategic leadership development: Embed inclusive, anti-racist leadership and take strategic ownership of race equality at board and senior levels.
- Recruitment, retention and workforce inclusion: Build diverse talent pipelines, improve staff experience, and support internationally educated colleagues.
- Allyship and confident leadership on race: Enable white leaders to engage meaningfully, act as allies and model inclusive behaviours across your trust.
- Safe, confident conversations about race: Talk about race more openly, create space for others to be heard, and build trust across teams.
- Using data to drive accountability and tackle health inequalities: Understand how race impacts health outcomes, and use data to embed accountability and deliver lasting change.

It was an amazing session. The lived experiences, views, projects and questions raised were all very useful. I will be able to utilise what I have learnt here to bring some ideas to my own network to improve the staff experiences at my trust.
