About this listen

The BartsAbility podcast aims to provide a platform for staff members of Barts Health NHS Trust and similar organisations who have long-term health conditions or disabilities, as well as caregivers or family members of individuals with disabilities, and those who support disability initiatives in their roles, to voluntarily share their experiences, challenges, and the resources or support they and their colleagues have utilised. By sharing these insights, we seek to support fellow colleagues and increase awareness of the BartsAbility Network and inspire others like it.Barts Health Education Academy Alternative & Complementary Medicine Hygiene & Healthy Living
