Work experience (15 to 18 year olds in full-time education or training)

County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust is committed to supporting 5 days work experience opportunities for young people within the Trust's catchment area of Country Durham, using all appropriate clinical and non-clinical areas to provide a broad range of work based experience.

Recognition is given to the dual benefits of helping individuals to gain insight and inform their choice of career pathway, as well as promoting the Trust's involvement in community links. We also recognise the need to manage this in a way that supports the individuals and ensures patient safety and integrity.

Work experience requests are managed through the Learning and Development administration team. Only work experience placements which have been submitted via the Trust's website and online application will be processed. Individuals cannot directly request a placement by email, paper application, CV, in person or by telephone.
