Helen continued: “With allies like NHSPS standing by the LGBTQ+ community, we can continue moving towards a better future.”
Meanwhile, Dr Min Rodriguez, NHSPS Head of Culture and Inclusion, commented, “Diversity and inclusion are crucial to NHSPS values, and we show our support for LGBTQ+ communities all year round.”
She added: “While significant strides regarding LGBTQ+ rights have been achieved, there are still challenges. So, at NHSPS, we continue to work towards a more inclusive and equal society.
