A big thank you to David and Oscar for braving the heatwave, and flying the ESNEFT flag at Colchester PRIDE, and thank you too, everyone that rocked up and showed support. @ESNEFT_LGBT

Just a quick update. Our own David H was out and about, invited to Outhouse's AGM this week, to talk about our collaborative efforts. Again it highlights a community, not just a staff network.

Just a heads up to get your bookings in early, but we have 2 Awareness Sessions in June. 26th @ Ipswich Hospital Lecture Hall 2-6pm, 27th @ CGH Training Room South 9am-1.30pm. Email [email protected] Team ESNEFT

Regarding our Awareness Sessions. A BIG thank you to The Outhouse as ever for their continued assistance.

Well this week sees the end of Pride, but it also sees 2 training sessions today in Ipswich, and tomorrow in Colchester, with the wonderful peeps from Outhouse. We hope the temperature hasn't done horrible things to you. And that the flags keep waving.Team ESNEFT

Yesterday saw the 2nd of our ESNEFT 1/2 day LGBTQIA awareness sessions in conjunction with the amazing The Outhouse. Tracy was her usual superb self, with these sessions providing safe spaces for discussions and education. To date, 250 f2f interactions! Awareness is vital.

On the flip side of the coin from Staff, we recently had a staff survey, but now we are looking for Patients experiences of ESNEFT via the below anonymous link, to help us improve the ESNEFT experience. Team ESNEFT smartsurvey.co.uk/s/L7Z1FW/

Well today sees the start of LGBTQ History Month, #underthescope. Take a look at our Facebook for a bit more on. 4 more role models to come.

Yesterday @ IPH saw another great turnout for one of our LGBTQIA+ Awareness Sessions. Nearly 40 members of staff turned out for a superb session, and we would like to thank all those that attended, and shared their stories and experiences, bringing the Network closer together.

If you would like to attend one of our Awareness sessions, our next sessions are in June, and Staff can check out the sessional dates for 2024 via our dedicated intranet page. Get in soon, as they can be booked up quickly. #ESNEFT

For those that haven't seen the email or Facebook, we have new badges. As modelled by our friends in ESNEFT Libraries.
