Request Summary: Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust staff religious beliefs training

Request Category: Private Individuals


Question Number 1: What training has been delivered to staff within the Trust relating to religion and religious beliefs, within the period 1st August 2022 to 1st August 2023? I would like a list of all the sessions delivered to staff. If a course has been delivered multiple times, please list each instance separately. For each one, I would like to know: • What was the session title or topic (if known)? • Was the session delivered (even if only partially) by someone external to the Trust? o If so, who? o How much was paid to them for this? o If payment is made, please specify if VAT was applicable, and if VAT is included in your figure(s). For “religion and religious beliefs”, please include any training which is likely to include a significant amount of content about the needs of religious people.

Answer To Question 1: No training has been provided to staff during that period specifically in relation to religion or belief. No external consultant has been engaged.
