He said his group was calling on the Muslim world to intervene militarily to rescue the people of Gaza ‘who have been subjected to horrific conditions for 16 years’. We took the opportunity to do a refresher on the whole rainbow NHS badge principle, along with the history of the Pride flag,” he said. Roles can be linked to multiple activities - for example, a general practitioner might be able to both view and amend patients' demographic details. It is possible that with time the public’s association of the rainbow flag with giving thanks to the NHS will diminish, but it is not guaranteed. Furthermore, evidence continues to emerge that underscores why NHS rainbow badges are necessary. Data published in 2021 show that a higher proportion of LGB adults have a limiting longstanding illness (26%) compared with heterosexual adults (22%), 14 and the 2021 NHS staff survey found that LGBTQ+ NHS staff are much more likely to face physical violence, bullying, and harassment in their workplace than other staff. 15 LGBTQ+ people have poorer experiences within a healthcare environment, whether as patients or staff. We can’t neglect the ongoing work we need to do to promote a safe and positive healthcare environment for the LGBTQ+ community.

It enabled us to not just deliver the first accredited COVID-19 vaccine in the world but to rollout the NHS vaccine programme with a combination of speed and precision unseen elsewhere. Transforming the NHS It is correct that the NHS Rainbow has been prominent in the covid response, but the true roots of the NHS Rainbow lie symbolically as a sign of safety for staff and patients who identify as LGBT+. only one flag (or two if one is from category (a) (flags which do not need consent) can be flown on a flagpole within the grounds of a building if one flag (or two if one is from category (a) (flags which do not need consent) is either being flown from the roof, or is projecting from the building. What I find frustrating are the people who know it's an LGBT flag but are taking the stance 'well it’s a symbol for the NHS now, we repurpose things all the time.'Large-scale vaccination programmes protected children from whooping cough, measles and tuberculosis, and in 1999 the meningitis C vaccine was offered nationally in a world first.

It’s also a powerful symbol for community, because all these colours combine into one whole, from different pieces coming together. And that’s why in 1978 Gilbert Baker created the rainbow flag.” We said we need to be really careful that in an NHS environment, we use the seven-colour rainbow arch to say thank you to the NHS. And if we talk about things to support LGBT+ people, we use the six-coloured Pride flag.”

So we took a few months to really think about the model, making clear there had to be this high level of personal responsibility in wearing it. It can’t just be a piece of pretty bling that ends up on someone’s lanyard and means nothing.” Speak to a GP if you've noticed changes in your usual bowel habits and it's lasted for 3 weeks or more. When the NHS logo appears on its own, it usually signifies the NHS at a national level — ‘the NHS in England’. However, the NHS logo may also be used on its own in instances such as:

When creating a Reasonable Adjustment flag, it is only mandatory to record consent. Therefore, other sections of the flag (such as Equality Act impairments to consider when making adjustments) may not contain any data. In this case, the section heading in question will still be present but a line of text will inform you that no data has yet been added to that section. At the time it felt quite radical, which seems ridiculous in hindsight, but I remember [Mike’s] sheer passion and determination to make it work. He had my unwavering support from then,” he said.

We are putting plans in place to help us to fulfil our ambitions, and to deliver better health and services for every community. To help celebrate the 75th birthday of the NHS in July 2023, a ‘Supporting NHS75’ mark has been created for use by approved and permitted stakeholders. The mark consists of the NHS logo and the number 75 together with the word supporting above it. NHS organisations If adjustments in care would benefit the patient, clinicians can follow existing best interests processes to create a Reasonable Adjustment flag for patients who are not able to provide consent.
