We want to highlight both the contribution of BME people & migration to the NHS past and present, but also the realities faced then and now (hostility in the workplace, the hostile environment and the disproportionate impact of COVID-19).

Professor Linda McDowell, University of Oxford, Fellow Emerita at St John’s College and author of Migrant Women’s Voices: talking about life and work in the UK since 1945
