The Department of Healths Pacesetters programme aims to tackle inequalities in health services and in the workplace arising out of discrimination and disadvantage.

The programme is founded on a robust evidence base and evaluation strategy. Its projects are developed through co-design with communities and delivered through a service improvement methodology.

As part of the Pacesetter s programme, NHS Nottinghamshire County is working jointly with NHS Nottingham City and Nottingham University Hospitals Trust on the following projects:

Work is in the initial stages with the identified Pacesetter initiatives registered as:
  • Health promotion for people with Learning Disabilities
  • Palliative Care for patients from faith communities
  • Representation of BME staff within the PCT workforce
Specific project plans are currently being developed, and will be available on the web site from May 2009. East Midland Service Delivery projects and East Midland Workforce projects are available to view within the Resource section of this page.

For more information visit the Department of Health website.
