WHITE PRIVILEGE EXISTS IN THE NHS. LOOK IN BIRMINGHAM NOT A BLACK OR BROWN IN SIGHT WHERE A DECISION IS BEING MADE And here are the guardians BWC NHS Trust @bhamcommunity UHB CEO @BWCHBoss Richard Kirby

DEEDS NOT WORDS @BWCHBoss Richard Kirby UHB CEO BSMHFT Recruitment The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Paul Jennings

How patronising is this A letter written by white privilege in an organisation that is led by white privilege while they ignore calls to be more inclusive. Telling everyone else to read some books and watch Netflix. We are so grateful -Thank you @BWCHBoss

Hello BWC NHS Trust We were thinking of watching Game of Thrones to learn about Black slavery, saw some clips and it's definitely covered. What do you think ? Shall we add that to the recommended viewing list @BWCHBoss John Brouder #moderndaywhiteprivilege #outoftouchthursday

Black lives still matter

I know how keen @BWCHBoss is to promote equality How did you get on with recruitment of a Chief Officer for people. Another chance to have a BME Executive in Birmingham Hopefully all your kind words have translated to actions and we can proudly celebrate the first appointment

Any news on this @BWCHBoss

Any news on this @BWCHBoss - it's not a trick question Have you appointed a BME Executive as your newly appointed Chief of People ?

Every opportunity @BWCHBoss has had to recruit a BME senior post to her organisation she hasn't but every opportunity she has had to say we need to do more, she has taken it. This is an example of when your words don't match your actions #bmelivesdontmatter

Agreed

Birmingham is still an all white NHS

Preparing for a job interview in Birmingham as a Board level director. Here are some tips: @BWCHBoss Richard Kirby UHB CEO Paul Jennings

If you were told you couldn't go home until you sorted out the diversity issue in Birmingham, what would you do differently? All the BME people in the most diverse city of Europe challenge NHS Birmingham leaders. Richard Kirby @BWCHBoss UHB CEO Paul Jennings

Birmingham NHS Trusts are still structurally racist and those leading the national agenda continue to be a part of it. Action not sweet words please
