## Description

The NHS has set an operational target to support BAME colleagues into every level of management, looking to see 19% of future NHS leaders be from a BAME background\. Elements of the Getting to Equity Programme have been under development for the last two years\. We are now in a position to commission a full programme that would support the business objective\. This 6 month programme provides an evidence-based framework for Chief Nurses and Directors of Midwifery \(Sponsors\) to promote the careers of aspiring ethnic minority nurse & midwifery colleagues \(Sponsorees\)\. We are looking for a supplier to provide a culturally competent sponsorship programme to deliver on our commitment to increase the number of BME nurses at the senior level of the profession to a level which is diverse and representative of the broader nursing workforce\. This will be available to 100 senior BME nurses and chief nurses\.
