What does it mean to create a healthcare system where everyone feels seen, heard, and included?


In this episode, our host Sam Elliott-Olechnowicz speaks with Blerta Ilazi, ReSTORE Programme Lead and Health Inequalities Educator, about her journey from Kosovo to a career of more than 25 years in the NHS. As an Advanced Nurse Practitioner specialising in health inclusion, Blerta is committed to tackling health inequalities and advocating for equitable care for all.


Blerta discusses the opportunities she has found in the UK, why she is passionate about supporting underrepresented communities, and the role refugee healthcare professionals play in strengthening the NHS. An inspiring conversation about courage, opportunity, and using your voice to make a difference.
