  1. Compassion in practice.
  2. Improving a service with limited resource.

How to give this application a real chance

  • Choose up to three of seven English regions you would actually live in. They match you after the virtual AC, so do not invent a trust or a ward you have never seen.
  • Compassion and limited-resource improvement need a real service example: a queue, a shortage, a patient or resident, a number. “I want to make a difference in the NHS” is the most common line they skip.
  • Opens 23 September 2026 at 12:00. Until then the Apply page is not live — register interest only, and do not log Applied.
