Healthcare Workers Invited to Three-Day Diversity Conference Featuring Pronouns and Gender
NHS contractor Bromley Healthcare is hosting a three-day diversity conference for more than 1,000 healthcare workers that will feature discussions on pronouns and gender. The Telegraph has more.
Despite record backlogs, the NHS main contractor for community healthcare in South East London, Bromley Healthcare, is hosting the conference entitled ‘Be the change’ from October third to the fifth.
The conference will include lectures on “pronouns, language and LGBTQ+ allyship” and “gender and LGBTQ+ sessions for colleagues working with children”.
Emails seen by the Telegraph also show healthcare staff were told to complete “mandatory unconscious bias training”.
Miriam Cates, the Conservative MP, said: “This kind of ‘training’ is not only a complete waste of taxpayers’ money, it is also deeply divisive, spreading destructive ideas that the majority of the population reject.
“‘Unconscious bias’ training has been shown to be a worthless exercise and we should be deeply concerned that the NHS is encouraging its staff to talk to children in their care about sex and sexuality.
“The Government should introduce a ban on all public sector training that does not directly relate to the activities for which staff are employed.”
Dame Priti Patel said: “The alarming rate at which woke ideology is powering through the ranks of the public sector and civil service is shocking.
“Now we hear of mandatory lectures for health professionals whose focus should be on patient care and not pronouns.
“The professionalism and impartiality of the machinery of the state is rightly under serious public scrutiny so it’s about time the leadership at the top of Government took responsibility and stopped the spread of such activities across the public sector.”
More than seven million people were waiting for treatment in England at the end of July. Since then, all 1,300 staff employed by the contractor have received seven separate emails from the CEO of Bromley Healthcare, Jacqueline Scott, urging attendance of the conference, which is held annually.
A source told the Telegraph that the invitation was sent to teams that were so short-staffed they were in “near crisis mode” and at risk of ceasing operations.
Bromley Healthcare was found to require improvement in five out of six key areas of competence after its latest inspection by the independent regulator of the NHS in summer 2021.
The Care Quality Commission’s (CQC) report rated the contractor’s safety standards, effectiveness, responsiveness and leadership as requiring improvement. Only its care provision received a rating of “good”.
According to the CQC, “requires improvement” means that “the service isn’t performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve”.
Issues highlighted included a failure to make “basic criminal record checks” on non-executive directors, a “variation in [the] quality” of care provided by nursing and health visiting teams, and it found “patient experience feedback was limited”.

Memo from the Prime Minister’s office:
“Steve, important we respond to show that we’re on the side of ordinary working people, so suggest you:
1. Make announcement today that you’re a bit miffed about this
2. Er…think (1) should be enough, so no further action required.
Cheers mate. Rish”
I’ll tell you who needs unconscious bias training – the radicals that organise these conferences and push these insane agendas on everyone. They, more than anyone else, need to examine their biases. In fact they probably need psychotherapy pretty urgently.
Please don’t call it a Diversity Conference. It has nothing to do with Diversity. Our enemies have chosen this language in order to make anyone who opposes their mad, evil ideas seem like they are against “diversity” (whatever that means) – and what nice, right-thinking person could possibly be against that?
We must now always put an Orwellian interpretation on anything coming from those nominally in authority.
I’m completely against diversity when it means giving respect to a minor attracted person & child abusers. When I started in the NHS in the late 1980s they were called paedophiles & mandatory training was for child protection, how to spot grooming behaviours & prevent harm. How the world has changed. I’d be going through a disciplinary if I were still working as there is no way I could stop protecting children by going along with this perverted nonsense.
Patient care should be the focus of healthcare & that includes being aware of signs of abuse rather than facilitating abuse disguised as healthcare.
I’ve spotted a couple in my career & with the right intervention have helped to protect a wife & 2 children.
NHS internal emails and intranet announcements have the writer specify their preferred method of address, such as ‘he/him’.
Benches outside hospitals, a Southeastern Railway locomotive, and the logo of a branch of a high street bank are striped in the rainbow + chevron colours. Perhaps the new banknotes featuring the portrait of the King will be the next to display this sign of the new conformity.
The very fact that Fishy and his ministers are allowing this jamboree to proceed tells us all we need to know about where their priorities lie and whose side they are on.
An NHS waiting list of seven million and a regional health authority is organising a three day talking shop on pronouns? FFS!
Jacqueline Scott, the head nutter for this outfit, should be loudly and publicly sacked and made an example of.
Unfortunately, this crap is all part of the Agenda 2030 ESG criminal enterprise and we all know where Fishy takes his orders from so this shit will simply continue.
NHS motto:
F. the patients we’re on a jamboree.
Some people may well die while this beano plays out.
Beautifully put.
Thank you.
Brilliant, HP!
Thanks Aethelred 👍
What on god’s green earth is this to do with healthcare? Nothing. How many times do you, as the NHS customer, find yourself in the position of being confused what to call someone? Never I should think. So it’s all about brainwashing the healthcare service in idiotic language. And this is a conference for 1,000 people over 3 days which is going to cost money. And who are all these attendees? People taken away from the actual business that the NHS is meant to deliver. It’s a effing disgrace!
This is worse than a disgrace: It’s New Labour authorized fraud. There’s a so-called equalities act which demands that all public services must DIE (note the wording) and hence, hordes of consultant and ‘charitable’ poleeches attach themselves to anything with a budget in order to suck it dry.
Seconded Aethelred 👍
If I called a patient by the wrong name or title, they were usually quick to say what I should have called them. How does that differ from not knowing which pronoun to use? I’m certain that a very quick & firm correction would be made!!
I´m pretty sure that if doctors and nurse were in charge of the health service, we would not see this inversion of clinical priorities.
Given the way doctors and nurses have conducted themselves these last three years, I cannot support that contention.
