Careers and Engagement

The Prince's Trust

The Prince’s Trust is currently delivering a contract with the Department of Health to support young people aged between 16 and 30 into work within the health and social care sector. They are keen to develop relationships with employers across primary care and have discussions about working together to support filling entry-level vacancies across sites in Lancashire and South Cumbria.

The Princes Trust will work locally and find local young people who are keen to work in our sector and start their careers in primary care. They will help us recruit across all entry-level positions clinical and non-clinical and allow us to take a flexible approach to bringing young people into our businesses through different programmes which can be viewed in this information booklet.
