Speak Up Month 2024
Learn how to get involved in Speak Up Month for the NHS this October.
Every October, the National Guardian’s Office highlights the importance of NHS staff having a voice that counts through its Speak Up Month campaign.
This year's theme is 'listen up' and will focus on the power of listening and encouraging people to feel confident to speak up.
The Long Term Workforce Plan sets out the ambition to create a culture where people feel safe and confident raising concerns when something goes wrong. It recognises that a culture where people feel they will be listened to is vital to both supporting and retaining our NHS workforce.
How to support the campaign
The Freedom to Speak Up Guardians encourage everyone to:
- complete the Freedom to Speak Up, Listen Up e-learning tool
- make a Listen Up Pledge
- take a look at the activities you can take part in and videos showing the impact of listening.
