Last week, our team attended The University of Salford Health, Community and Life Sciences Careers Fair and the Manchester Metropolitan University AHP Employment Fair.

Both events provided a great opportunity to connect with students, hear about their career aspirations and share how Greater Manchester Training Hub can support them as they explore opportunities within primary care.

It was encouraging to see so many people interested in developing their careers in primary care.
