It is always a great day when we get to add another Trust to our slide. Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust have added implementation of the #SASsix to their medical EDI policy, which launched today. Bravo!

In a post on LinkedIn earlier, Prof Rich Withnall, @fmlm-uk.bsky.social CEO, said: “I am delighted that FMLM has joined a growing coalition of influential healthcare organisations committed to meaningful reform for SAS and locally‑employed doctors." #SASsix

We are absolutely thrilled that Leicester Partnership NHS Trust have chosen to join our collection of employers seeking to support their SAS and locally-employed workforce. The #SASsix is a roadmap for change, and we love to see it used. Bravo! www.leicspart.nhs.uk/news/our-sas...

Leicester Partnership NHS Trust become the twelfth Trust we have been able to add to this slide, after their pledge today to use the SAS six in their approach to their workforce. Could your Trust be next? Get in touch! www.leicspart.nhs.uk/news/our-sas...

We are delighted that @bashhuk.bsky.social have decided to support our #SASsix campaign! A lot of sexual health care is delivered by SAS doctors. Signposting a career for these doctors to achieve their potential is a vital part of supporting this workforce. We look forward to working with you!

In recent months many new organisations have decided to support or endorse the #SASsix campaign. Most recent was @bashhuk.bsky.social, who did so yesterday. Like us, these organisations believe that supporting every doctor to achieve their potential is right for the workforce. Could you be next?

We are always thrilled when another organisation comes on board and supports our campaign. Thanks to DAUK for your kind words about the campaign, and for raising awareness with your platform. We like you, too! open.substack.com/pub/dauk/p/h... #SASsix

We love it when organisations decide to support our campaign. We can't do anything without the support of our allies. You are vital. Thanks to FFLM for your support. You are brilliant! #SASsix

New SAS resource from our friends at @rcoanews.bsky.social! Progression to working autonomously and progression to a Specialist contract to recognise that autonomy should go hand in hand. This document further supports progression for SAS anaesthetists. Bravo! #SASsix rcoa.ac.uk/training-car...

We are delighted that @ics-updates.bsky.social have chosen to endorse the #SASsix, joining these other splendid organisations. We think that if everyone understood the importance of these things, and how much potential the medical workforce is currently losing out on, we might change the world!

Fantastic news that @ics-updates.bsky.social have decided to endorse the #SASsix, and support us in our efforts to make the careers of SAS and locally-employed doctors all they can be. Read more here: ics.ac.uk/resource/sup...

This is going to be a great event and opportunity to talk about SAS/LED careers and our important roles within the NHS workforce!

We are delighted that Nottinghamshire Healthcare have decided to join our campaign and support the #SASsix in their organisation! They join multiple other Trusts across the country doing so, improving careers and retention of doctors in the NHS. www.nottinghamshirehealthcare.nhs.uk/latest-news/...

Had a fabulous meeting of the SAS Collective tonight, talking about how we can support the Trusts that have signed up to implement the change. The #SASsix is about meaningful action to further the careers of doctors. It makes sense to do this.

It has been fun but daunting, starting our from scratch on a new platform. Thanks to everyone who followed us and engaged with us on here in 2024! We hope you have a great 2025, and remember, a SAS doctor is for life, not just for Christmas (or New Year, or pancake day)! #SASsix #MedSky #SASsky
