Are you currently not working, interested in working in health and care, but experience barriers to employment?

The Cornwall Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is proud to offer employability support for people who aspire to work in health and care. Representing the NHS in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly and the many different, varied job opportunities and apprenticeships there are within health and care, we can support people into this area of work.

As the NHS is one of the largest employers in Cornwall, with over 350 different job opportunities, plus apprenticeships and volunteering, we can support participants into health and care careers: including social care as well. We can also support participants from across the whole of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.

• 121 personalised support and mentoring
