Current Consultations
Consultation on Good Relations Strategy for a Healthy Future
Belfast Trust recognises the importance of embracing diversity, promoting good relations and challenging sectarianism and racism. As the largest Health and Social Care provider in Northern Ireland, the Trust is committed to promoting good relations and wants to ensure service users and staff enjoy equality of opportunity and equality of access to health and social care in a welcoming and neutral environment.
In order to further this commitment the Trust has developed a draft Good Relations Strategy - Healthy Relations for a Healthy Future – 2013 - 2015 for public consultation from 11 January 2013 – 5 April 2013. Download the strategy here
As a public authority we have a legal responsibility under Section 75 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 to promote equality of opportunity and good relations. We hope that this strategy goes beyond compliance to proactively create an organisation where service users and staff feel valued, respected and comfortable irrespective of race, religion or political opinion.
During the development of this strategy the Trust carried out a pre-consultation and engagement process to offer service users, staff, Section 75 representative groups, community and voluntary organisations, Trade Unions and religious groups the opportunity to inform the strategy to ensure it was meaningful and met identified needs.
We hope this strategy reflects the feedback received, but recognise the value of meaningful consultation and welcome feedback from this public consultation.
