We are running a month-long campaign inspiring young people aged 14-24 to consider careers in the Health and Science sector.
Join us as we showcase all careers and pathways in to the sector, provide case studies of people working in the sector and tips and advice on working in health and social care.
“As an organisation working to improve youth employment, young people often tell us that they aren’t aware of the opportunities available to them, they struggle to find work experience and often feel they have been underprepared with the skills they need for work. Campaigns like these allow us to showcase the full range of exciting opportunities within the sector” Lauren Mistry, Youth Employment UK
