The Practice is very proud to announce that we have been awarded a GOLD Pride in Practice Award from the LGBT Foundation.
Pride in Practice is a quality assurance service and nationally recognised accreditation for primary care. We are an evidence-based model designed to support services to better meet the needs of LGBT patients, and to celebrate excellence in inclusive healthcare provision through our bronze, silver and gold awards. Pride in Practice works in partnership with clinicians, managers and staff to meet the demands of policy makers, patients and colleagues, and empowers LGBT community members to work with health professionals and commissioners to find shared solutions to barriers LGBT people face.
We are committed to improving our services for LGBT patients. If you have any feedback or ideas do please get in touch with the Practice Manager. Below are some useful documents including links to websites and other supporting information.
