Kareem. A few tips for those who have Muslim colleagues
1. No we can't even drink water
2. You don't have to hide away to eat your lunch
3. Its alright if you forget and ask if we want a drink (for the10th time!)
4. Not all Muslims fast (dont assume or ask why !) 😊

Being "committed" to Equality and Inclusion is very different from actively doing something about it. Giving up power and space for others takes courage. Not everyone is cut out for it. That's it.

Leaders need to look around the room and call out the lack of diversity themselves, not wait for others to tell them .Take action. You are leaders for a reason . Diversity in decision making leads to better decisions . It's a no brainer.

When senior leaders & board members dont feel psychologically safe to speak up, it sends a message to the whole organisation. No matter how well designed your strategies & policies are, if culture is poor,staff & patients suffer. Board meetings should disrupt & challenge thinking
NHS Board members have a duty to speak up too when other means of raising concerns fail. My thoughts.

The impact of emergency coronavirus legislation on groups who are already disadvantaged in other ways must be considered to ensure they are not further left behind.
