About the NHS Race and Health Observatory
The NHS Race and Health Observatory 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 Observatory addresses aspirations in these areas as outlined in national healthcare policy. It is a proactive investigator, providing strong recommendations that inform policymaking and facilitate change. The Observatory is evidence-driven and solution-focused.
The Observatory is hosted by NHS Confederation and supported by NHS England. The Board and team of the Observatory are independent, and it dictates its own direction and areas of focus. The Observatory 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
