Share your ideas on the future of our staff networks.
Our three staff networks are recognised for their important role in striving toward the Trust’s commitment to fostering a culture of belonging and inclusion, where all our people have a voice, and we will tackle discrimination and inequality gaps. The three networks are the Disability and Wellbeing Network (DaWN), Rainbow Alliance and Workforce Race Equality Network (WREN).
With the recruitment of new chairs for the Workforce Race Equality Network and Rainbow Alliance, and the change of focus to a staff-only safe space for the Rainbow Alliance Network, it is an ideal opportunity for us to come together and co-create our future plans and activities for each network.
Now is the time for you to make your voice heard and share your views on why the networks are important to you, how they can support you, as well as how you want to see them working in the future.
What is Your Voice Counts?
Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is committed to bringing the experience and ideas of staff, service users, members and partners to the heart of decision making. “Your Voice Counts” is our way of making this happen
This website is our digital channel for Your Voice Counts, it works alongside our face-to-face workshops, focus groups and other communications and listening events to give our communities a voice.
This accompanying video helps tell the story of how this approach empowered our staff and stakeholders to make their voice count in our recent strategy refresh project.
What is a Your Voice Counts Online Conversation?
Like all great meetings, a Your Voice Counts online conversation brings people together to build insight, agree plans and inspire action.
Unlike a physical meeting, our online conversations provide us with a virtual room that is not constrained by size, timing or location. It means more people can have their say at a time that suits them from wherever they are whilst the conversation is live.
Each online conversation poses one or more powerful questions to our staff, service users, carers, members and partners and invites those who are interested to share their ideas, review the ideas of others and use voting and commenting to bring the best ideas to the top.
All contributions to our online conversations are anonymised, this ensures ideas are judged on their merit, not their author. It means we can have truly open, honest and accountable debate.
