From ambition to action: widening participation in practice
Join us for our first webinar in a new series which aims to support employers to enhance widening participation initiatives and improve social mobility within their workforce.
This session will explore how The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust has made widening participation a strategic priority, working with local partners to develop early careers, placement and access-to-work opportunities that are delivering tangible results for the community.
We’ll also spend time looking at the national asks of widening participation and how employers can align work already being implemented.
Our Speakers:
- James Short, senior experience and development partner at The Rotherham Foundation NHS Trust
- Candace Bedu-Mensah, assistant director for widening participation and social mobility at NHS Employers
Who should attend:
This event is open to anyone working in or alongside the NHS who has an interest in, influence over, or responsibility for widening participation and workforce supply. It will be particularly relevant to colleagues working in workforce, recruitment, retention, education, organisational development, and equality, diversity and inclusion, but also those interested in creating more inclusive routes into NHS careers are welcome.
Please note that this event is intended for NHS staff and partners supporting NHS workforce priorities, rather than individuals seeking information about applying for NHS roles.
