Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day to honour those who have lost their lives to anti-transgender violence.

To mark the day, our LGBT+ Staff Network and Chaplaincy team held a Service of Remembrance for staff of all faiths and none who wished to stand in support of the trans community. The service honoured those who have died from anti-trans violence, as well as those who have experienced it. During the service, candles were lit to remember those who have lost their lives during the last year.

Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust is committed to being an inclusive organisation where all transgender staff, patients and visitors feel welcome, safe and respected.

Talking about death and dying isn’t easy – but it’s important.

It’s why we’ve launched a new short film that explores the value in having conversations about end of life care, through real stories and diverse perspectives.

In this bonus clip, Delberth encourages everyone to start the conversation.

Watch the full film and learn how to start planning: www.guysandstthomas.nhs.uk/letstalk

Strike action is taking place at our hospitals and community sites from 7am on Friday 14 November until 7am on Wednesday 19 November.

We'll contact you if your care or your child's care is affected. If you have an appointment at any of our hospitals or community sites on these days, please assume this is going ahead unless you have been told otherwise.

Our emergency department (A&E) at St Thomas' Hospital will remain open during the strike action to treat people who need emergency or urgent care. We expect it to be very busy.

If you need medical advice but it’s not an emergency, please use a different service to get the care you need. You could:

➡️ call NHS 111 or visit www.111.nhs.uk
➡️ make an appointment with your GP
➡️ go to a local pharmacist

We're sorry for any distress that delays to your care may cause.

Say hi to Dr Raselle Miller, a lead clinical psychologist who supports the psychological health and wellbeing of our diverse workforce —promoting cultural sensitivity, inclusion and belonging across the Trust. 👋

Raselle said: “At a time when issues of inequality and racism continue to affect communities, our work reminds us how vital compassion, awareness and psychological safety are in the workplace. We do this by developing wellbeing initiatives that meet the needs of all staff.

“Our NHS staff are impacted by so much professionally and personally, creating spaces where people feel seen, respected and valued matters more than ever. It’s with these experiences that staff can provide quality care.”

Today we commemorated Armistice Day with services around the Trust.

A 2-minute silence was held at 11am to remember those that were injured or gave their lives in active service. This is particularly important here at the Trust, given our close relationship with our Armed Forces colleagues, veterans and community, and our commitment to supporting them.
