Our new project 'Book Explorers' has been a smashing success! We have really enjoyed reading some amazing books with the students from multiple schools and delivering the sessions with the UWE Student Ambassadors! This project just highlights the great work that is being done at Future Quest especially in Future Quest Primary & Children's University! The UWE Student Volunteers have been really engaging with the students and the students have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the values of the characters as well as discussing their own personal strengths with the UWE Volunteers! This has been really excellent to see and we are looking for to the final 3 weeks of this project! We asked the students what they've enjoyed the most from their sessions in Book Explorers and here are two comments from Tiago and Addi! If your school would like to participate in the next programme for Book Explorers, please don't hesitate to contact us using the link in our Bio!
The NHS has 6 core values! The first value is "Working Together For Patients". While all staff members must work together to meet the NHS values, there are some roles that readily meet this specific value due to the job responsibilities. As the NHS value states, "Patients come first in everything the NHS does". Therefore, these NHS job roles have more contact with patients and easily meet the value, "Working Together For Patients"! Specialist Paramedic Porter Speech & Language Therapist Over the next 5 weeks, we'll be highlighting other NHS values and the roles that readily fit these values through their responsibilities. @nhsengland @nhshee
