Inspiring change
Exceptional care begins with exceptional people. We believe opportunity can transform lives within our teams, our hospitals, and the wider community. As part of Compass Group UK & Ireland, we are proud to support the goal of creating one million job opportunities by 2030.

Guided by integrity
Fairness sits at the heart of our culture. We champion equal and transparent pay and advocate the appropriate use of zero-hour contracts. We also publish annual gender and ethnicity pay gap reports, sharing our journey toward greater equity and inclusion at every level of our organisation.
A place for everyone
We want every colleague to feel they belong. From our kitchens to our leadership teams, we aim to reflect the diversity and richness of the communities we serve. Through our Within, Pride in Food, and Women in Food networks, we celebrate individuality and create space for voices to be heard.
We also offer dedicated mental health support and development opportunities for colleagues with learning disabilities, empowering every individual to grow in confidence.
Our networks



Partnerships with purpose
True collaboration extends beyond our hospitals. We work closely with suppliers, charities and social enterprises that share our vision for a fairer future.
Supporting meaningful enterprise
Through Foodbuy, our procurement division, we partner with over 600 small and medium-sized enterprises that bring craftsmanship, care and local expertise to our service.
Creating pathways to opportunity
Together with organisations such as the DWP, Springboard, The Clink and the Care Leaver Covenant, we open doors for those facing barriers to employment. Our volunteering programme also gives every colleague the chance to support local causes.
Extending care beyond borders
Our partnerships reach across the globe, helping to provide clean water, education and employment to communities in need.
