Investing in Young Local Talent

Hundreds of Swansea youngsters had a taste of a future career in health sciences at the first conference of its kind designed to boost the local NHS and life sciences workforce.

Over 200 pupils in Year 11 from Bishopston Comprehensive were invited to a special careers conference highlighting the variety of jobs in the NHS and life science sector – such as laboratory and scientific testing to help diagnose and treat illnesses.

The first Elevate Conference was held at Swansea University earlier this month and it proved a huge success with the Bishopston pupils.
