Proud to have worked on this major new #mentalhealth report with @Forster_Comms. While employers have made significant improvements, we still need to urgently ramp up the breadth and quality of support available #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek
Employers need to take action to address work related #mentalhealth issues of their employees. Find out how in the #MentalHealthatWork report in conjunction with @UKMercer #WMHD wellbeing.bitc.org.uk/MHAW20…

A mother has become the first woman in the UK to have a double hand transplant, thanks to the work of @BSSHand member Simon Kay and the team at @LeedsHospitals - read more via @Telegraph: bit.ly/2y0KsnF

We're pleased to announce that our team have performed another two life changing hand transplants. This work is truly groundbreaking and has transformed the lives of patients; helping them regain their independence and take on the everyday tasks that many of us take for granted.

Racial discrimination and unconscious biases within recruitment and in the workplace can act as a barrier for candidates. Employers need to do more to tackle this and create an environment that is accessible to everyone. Here’s how: forster.co.uk/insight/five-w… #diversity #inclusion
