NHS Scotland Armed Forces Talent Programme

The Armed Forces Talent Programme (AFTP) is a national programme commissioned by the Office of the Chief Executive of NHS Scotland to support the entry of the Armed Forces Community (in its widest possible definition) to enter the health and social care workforce.

We work across all 22 health boards in Scotland and aim to increase the awareness of the employment opportunities within NHS Scotland and the pathways into them. Also to support our recruiting managers to better understand the knowledge, skills and experience the Armed Forces Community can bring to our workforce.​

If you have never thought of roles within NHS Scotland, why not join our Monthly Online Webinar; an informative overview to answer the “what” questions – Pay, locations, roles, training required, routes in etc.

​The next webinar is on Tuesday 4th June​​ at ​​14.30 - you can ​register for this or other webinar's by scanning the QR code or clicking here.

For more information visit the AFTP Webpage.

UK Health Security Agency advice - be tick aware

 

Ticks can be active all year round, but they are most active in the months April to July, and sometimes later in the autumn.

Don't let ticks stop you from enjoying the outdoors but reduce the chance of acquiring a tick bite by:

1. Using a repellent that prevents ticks
2. Wearing long sleeves and long trousers to reduce direct skin exposure
3. Keep to clearly defined paths and avoid brushing against vegetation
4. Regularly check for ticks and brush off any you find immediately
5. When you’re back indoors, check for any ticks on you, your children and pets
6. If you find a tick, remove it as soon as possible with a removal device

Catterick: Bedale Juniors Inclusive FC - Open to children with any type of disability

Absolutely thrilled to announce our new venture.

Most kids like to play football, but for some, the school or local team is just not a good fit…… Why? Because they have some sort of disability. 

We at Bedale Juniors want to offer football training and participation for ALL children no matter their ability!
