A group of Year 8 and 9 students, that are interested in a career in health care or medicine, visited the Future Heroes Expo in Hatfield. Students had the opportunity to meet and talk to various professionals from within the NHS and other health care providers. Their discussions encouraged them to find out about aspects of health care that are less well known, as well as what the possible routes are into each profession, including apprenticeships.

As well as visiting the Autism and Dementia experience buses, students also used VR headsets to ‘treat’ a patient and also had the opportunity to use official medical equipment on training manikins. A fun, but very informative morning was had by all!
