This webinar is for colleagues working in volunteering, recruitment, widening participation or similar NHS roles who want to better understand how volunteering can support asylum seekers and refugees on their journey into NHS employment. 

The session will explore how organisations can appoint refugees in-line with the NHS employment check standards, and the benefits of offering volunteering opportunities as a meaningful first step towards employment. 

Our speakers 

  • Helpforce will present on insights from its Refugee Volunteer to Career programme, which supports refugees and NHS partners to open doors and build careers in healthcare. 
  • North West London will share its experience of successfully recruiting asylum seekers and refugees as volunteers, and the positive impact this has had on individuals and services. 

Speakers will also be available for a Q&A session based on their experience.
