The Cavendish Coalition

The coalition recognises that the talented and diverse group of people we employ and represent are central to the success of that commitment, and that individuals from the UK, Europe and across the world, make a vital contribution to delivering care to the UK’s population.
The coalition acts as a shared voice which influences and lobbies on post-EU referendum matters. It also provides those leading the negotiations with expertise and knowledge on the issues affecting the health and social care workforce.
We are committed to working together to ensure a continued domestic and international pipeline of high calibre professionals and trainees in health and social care.
Social care and the NHS rely on people from around the world to deliver care in all areas. In what are very challenging times, we know that to meet the existing demand in social care, support the reduction in waiting lists and improve patient experience, we need to retain all of our existing talented colleagues - wherever they might come from. To do this, our people need to feel welcome, safe and valued - with visa routes that are attractive and competitive relative to our global competitors.
