This research aims to co-create “safe spaces” for BAME OTs based on findings from co-produced workshops with BAME OTs and managers in the NHS, private and social care sectors, and investigate the changes in individuals, teams and organisations when affirmative, accountable and non-judgmental safe spaces are created to support and facilitate ‘No barriers to success’ for BAME OTs and their allies.
