\"Shuri<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Shuri Network<\/strong> is the first NHS and care network of women from minority ethnic groups in digital health. We are a unique team that has had a big impact on celebrating difference and diversity in digital health, challenging the system to take action and supporting women from ethnic minorities to succeed in their careers. We are named after Shuri, the Black Panther character who is responsible for her country\u2019s technological success and champion safety, innovation and diversity. The Network is supported by NHS England. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Mission Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will not rest until our digital workforce and leadership represent the wider health and care workforce and the communities we serve. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join the Shuri Network<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Membership is free and open to all (women from minority ethnic groups in digital health and allies who support our aims) and will ensure you receive our newsletters and updates about events and opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The national Digital Health & Social Care Plan <\/a>published in June 2022 by NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care cites the Shuri Network as one of the key actions for delivering a digital future and building digital skills: “We will continue to support the equality, diversity and inclusion agenda, including through continued support of the Shuri network for women from minority ethnic groups in digital health.” We are also included in the NHS England Three Year Delivery Plan for Maternity and Neonatal Services<\/a> published in March 2023 as an initiative that supports staff to deliver safer, more personalised, and more equitable care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
