NHS Scotland Pride Badge
Make the Pledge and Wear the Badge with Pride!
NHS Scotland pride badge applications are no longer being accepted.
Toolkit documents are available below to help guide staff in showing their support for, and supporting LGBT patients and colleagues.
The NHS Scotland Pride Badge promotes inclusion for LGBTQ+ people and makes a statement that there’s no place for discrimination in NHS Scotland.
As an NHS staff member who wears the badge, you are pledging to:
- be aware of and responsive to issues faced by LGBTQ+ people accessing care
- be a friendly, listening ally who staff and service users can safely approach
- use inclusive language and respect identity
