A Holistic Persons Journey within Health and Social Care Sectors is an innovative and unique careers and engagement package which has been developed in partnership with Lancashire and South Cumbria Primary Care Training Hub, NHS West Lancashire Clinical Commissioning Group (WLCCG), West Lancashire College (WLC), Lancashire Careers Enterprise and West Lancashire Patient Representative Groups.

- A holistic approach within an individual’s journey, aims to encourage pupils to consider what career pathways are available within all our health and social care services
- Gain an understanding of how lifestyle choices impact on a person’s health and well-being
Delivered by healthcare professional ambassadors and supported by pre-registration medical and non-medical student volunteer ambassadors, these workshops contribute to schools’ careers programmes, and Workshops can be delivered to students across Key Stages 2, 3 and 4 and are in accordance with Gatsby Benchmarks.
