This investigation, months in the making, reveals racism in Bristol hospitals.Our journalist Priyanka Raval was contacted by whistleblowers from local NHS trust University Hospitals Bristol and Weston (UHBW), many of whom have been recruited by the NHS from overseas to deal with the UK's chronic staffing shortages.
The Cable has been investigating claims of institutional racism at the trust, after 10 whistleblowers came forward to share their stories, including seven who have now left as a result.
Bullying, facing racial slurs, being passed over for promotion and blamed for mistakes – these are just some of the experiences sources say they’ve faced in recent years.
We reveal how complaints went unheard, despite promises from management to tackle the issue. Meanwhile regulatory body the CQC has promised to investigate the issue and hold the trust accountable. But six months on, sources are giving up hope the CQC will make good on its promise.
