Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

The SECAmb vision has quality, innovation, improvement and meeting the clinical and care needs of patients at its core.

These pages demonstrate our commitment to developing and implementing integrated staff, patient, public and stakeholder engagement as part of our core functions. To achieve this we aim to demonstrate a real commitment to put the patient at the heart of everything we do.

As a service provider, we are committed to providing a service which is accessible to everyone and prevents unfair or unlawful discrimination on the grounds of age, disability, sex, gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religion, faith or belief.  We are working to promote good relations between different individuals and groups.

As an employer, we will ensure our employees work in an environment which respects and includes everyone and is free from discrimination, harassment and unequal treatment. We are keen to attract staff from diverse backgrounds that are representative of the population we serve and seek to raise our profile as a potential employer.

The Trust is a member of the Employers Network for Equality & Inclusion (enei) and was awarded the Gold Award for Talent, Inclusion & Diversity Evaluation in 2024, recognising our commitment to advancing inclusive practice across the organisation.

In addition, our Armed Forces Network achieved the Armed Forces Covenant Gold Award in 2025, reflecting the Trust’s sustained commitment to supporting members of the Armed Forces community, including veterans, reservists, and military families.

The Trust also achieved Disability Confident Level 1 status in March 2025 and is actively working towards Disability Confident Level 2 accreditation in 2026, further strengthening our commitment to removing barriers and creating an inclusive workplace for disabled colleagues.
