Melanie Holloway
I have worked within the Diversity and Inclusion space since 2018. I have been with the NHS for 4.5 years as part of the National Diversity & Inclusion Team, leading on national projects such as Black on Board, supporting Staff Networks and the Stonewall WEI Submission. I have been the Chair of the LGBTQIA+ Staff Network at NHS England for 18 months. Prior to working for the NHS, I was the EDI Lead for a large social housing organisation, responsible for writing and implementing the EDI strategy. I have a real passion for diversity and inclusion, specialising in LGBTQIA+ inclusion. I understand the needs of the diverse communities in which we work and serve, not just from my Diversity and Inclusion work but from a 20 year career in social care.
