Nottinghamshire Healthcare will be showing its support for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans (LGBT) History Month by flying a rainbow flag at its headquarters throughout February.
Mike Cooke, Trust Chief Executive will be hoisting the flag at Duncan Macmillan House, Porchester Road on Tuesday 1 February at 1.15pm.
Catherine Conchar, Head of Equality and Diversity, said: “Each year we take pride in supporting LGBT History Month. As a Trust we are passionate about embracing and respecting the diversity of our service users, carers and staff. This was reflected recently when we were named top healthcare organisation and 12th overall in Stonewall’s 2011 Workplace Equality Index which features the best employers in Britain for lesbian, gay and bisexual people.”
LGBT History Month takes place every February. It celebrates the lives and achievements of the LGBT community and encourages everyone to recognise the positivity of diversity and differences in culture across society.
