This tweet chat considered how we can support the LGBTQ+ population. The event focused on listening to service users and taking responsibility for collecting and reporting data.

Chaired by Dr Layla McCay, director of policy at NHS Confederation and co-chair of the Health and Care LGBTQ+ Leaders’ Network, the tweet chat:

  • explored how we can best engage LGBTQ+ patients in developing services
  • shared examples of successful collaboration with local LGBTQ+ community and charity organisations
  • discussed barriers faced in reporting accurate sexual orientation and gender identity information to the NHS data set.
