The umbrella of diversity covers everyone – from neurodiverse communities and people with disabilities to those facing social exclusion or escaping abuse. 🌈

This , we pledge to protect every individual, because everyone matters.

We’re committed to keeping adults safe, embracing inclusion and supporting people with additional needs. Prevention is everyone’s responsibility.

Look closely and you’ll see a mix of uniforms and office wear – nurses and matrons, therapies and radiography, domestic teams and healthcare assistants. Every role matters, and every team stands united behind this pledge. It takes a whole hospital pulling together to safeguard patients.

New virtual tour launch – making hospital visits easier!

“This project matters so much to me. When my son was younger, every hospital visit was a battle. If only he could see what was coming, it might have taken away some of that fear.” – Mark, parent and designer of our new tool [at Bartex Design, www.bartex360.com].

We’re proud to be the first district general hospital in Cheshire & Merseyside to launch an interactive virtual tour – helping autistic patients and those with additional needs feel more prepared and less anxious before appointments.

Explore key areas like waiting rooms, X-Ray and endoscopy suites in a 360° experience designed with patients in mind.

This Adult Safeguarding Awareness Week, we’re highlighting how inclusion benefits everyone. Whether you have additional needs or simply want to see your ward or clinic space before you come to hospital, this tool is for you.
