National Staff Survey 2024

In the 2024 NHS staff survey results it was positive to see we scored highest or joint highest nationally when compared to other mental health and learning disability trusts in these five areas: being compassionate and inclusive, reward and recognition, working flexibly, working as a team and staff morale.

While it is always helpful to look at how we benchmark with other similar trusts nationally, this doesn’t limit our ambition to improve in areas where we already benchmark well. It helps us understand where there are opportunities to learn from others who are scoring higher than us.

Where we are doing well

• Committed to helping staff balance work and home life and you can talk to a manager about flexible working.

• Staff feel able to meet conflicting demands on your time at work.

• A high percentage of colleagues would also recommend LPFT as a place to work.

Opportunities for Development

We are committed to providing pathways and opportunities for development for all staff. We are proud of our partnership with the University of Lincoln and the Lincoln Medical School. The Medical School has been supporting the expansion of our academic offerings to nurture and value talent across the Trust.

We value allowing people to be themselves and are committed to being openly supportive and celebrating diversity. We have three active staff network groups:

• Black Asian Minority Ethnics (BAME)
• Lesbian Gay Bi-Sexual Transgender (LGBT+)
• Staff with Mental and Physical Lived Experience (MAPLE).

This has resulted in annual staff conferences and some great national accolades such as the Trust being included in the Top 100 organisations in the country within the Stonewall Index. We have developed our values, behaviours and culture over the past three years and we live by them.
