Founded in 1988, THET has a vision of a world where everyone has access to healthcare. It achieves this by training and educating health workers in Africa and Asia, working in partnership with organisations and volunteers from across the UK. It is the only British charity with this focus and has reached over 100,000 health workers across 31 countries in partnership with over 130 UK institutions.
Bloem Consulting has supported THET in creating an ethical storytelling Code of Conduct [PDF] together with practical guidelines for its application for use by UK and overseas stakeholders, ensuring that all those involved in THET’s communications are operating within the highest ethical standards.
It has also supported THET in assessing the extent to which the organisation’s digital community platform – Pulse – enables the organisation to meet NHS Workforce Race Equality Standards and promote equality. The outcomes of this assessment are being used to provide guidance on good practice, outline strategies for fostering a more inclusive culture, as well as a better organisational understanding of diversity and inclusion.
