What other ways can we support your school or college?

Health Ambassadors

Our Health Ambassadors can help young people make informed choices about the range of job roles within the NHS and Social Care. They can help dispel myths about jobs and professions, and importantly, ensure that young people have a realistic view of the world of work and the routes into it. Health Ambassadors can take part in careers fairs, mock interviews, career networking or a lunchtime talk.
