Outreach Programme
What is the Outreach Programme?
The Community Outreach Simulation Programme focuses on using simulation to educate 8-18 year olds within our local community and encourages them to consider a career in the NHS. Together with UHBW employees, the programme facilitates simulation sessions both within the hospital/Simulation Centre and also off site at museums, schools and colleges. We use simulation to bring to life the amazing careers available within our NHS.
History of the programme
In its initial year, the programme was funded as a pilot from Health Education England South West Simulation Network. After a successful outreach year with the support of our Trust, the programme was made permanent, enabling us to continue to support the young people of our community.
Future plans
We have many on and off site events planned throughout the year. We hope by continuing this special work we can support young people's development, provide inspiration and raise aspirations within the city. We work closely with local schools and youth groups however, also host events for our young people members aged 14-18 years twice a year.
