About the NHS Race and Health Observatory
The NHS Race and Health Observatory (RHO) is an independent organisation, set up to identify and tackle ethnic inequalities in access to healthcare, experiences of healthcare, health outcomes, and inequalities experienced by Black, and minority ethnic members of the health and care workforce. In doing so, the RHO addresses aspirations in these areas as outlined in national healthcare policy, including those set-out in the NHS Long Term Plan. It is a proactive investigator, providing strong recommendations that inform policymaking and facilitate change. The RHO is evidence-driven and solution-focused.
The RHO is supported by NHS England and hosted by NHS Confederation. The Board and team of the RHO are independent, and it dictates its own direction and areas of focus. The RHO has three main functions:
• facilitating new, high-quality, and innovative research and evidence
• making strategic recommendations for change in policy and practice
• supporting the practical implementation of those recommendations.
