(GB News) Top NHS executives have taken part in a scheme to be “reverse-mentored” by Muslim staff on their “lived experience,” GB News understands.

NHS Chief Strategy Officer Chris Hopson and NHS Director for People Em Wilkinson-Brice have volunteered to partake in the NHS Muslim Network’s scheme, whereby top officials meet with Muslim members of staff to listen to their “lived experience as a Muslim colleague working within the NHS.”
