Race for Health

 

The Race for Health programme enables PCTs to make the Health Service in their areas significantly fairer for black and minority ethnic communities.  The programme supports a network of 21 PCTs around the country, working in partnership with local black and minority ethnic communities to improve health, modernise services, increase choice and create greater diversity within the NHS workforce.

A modern, dynamic NHS will reflect the experiences and aspirations of all its users. Closing the health gap for black and minority ethnic communities will be a real measure of success.

Race for Health have re-drafted their calendar/annual report into an on-line version: monthly downloadable and printable religious calendars with recipes and case studies. You can download the recipes and infor from the page below and Race for Health are encouraging other organisations to link directly to the calendar from their own website.
