海角直播 has forged a new strategic partnership with a local NHS mental health trust to bolster opportunities for graduates in the health sector. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between 海角直播 and Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust (TEWV) builds on successful joint working and will see both organisations working collaboratively on a broad range of initiatives to help support students and graduates within the healthcare sector, as well as support the transformation of practice.

TEWV provides mental health and learning disability services across 海角直播, County Durham, Darlington and North Yorkshire.

The MoU between the two organisations will foster joint activities across multiple areas and will include:

  • Supporting placement opportunities for student nurses and allied health professionals.

  • Developing collaborative education and training programmes within TEWV, including CPD and apprenticeships.
  • Identifying funding opportunities for collaborative research.
  • Establishing joint initiatives and interventions to support the broader needs of the region.

The partnership with TEWV supports the delivery of 海角直播鈥檚 mission to provide the training and skills needs for regional and national employers in the health sector.

This new partnership is a great opportunity to build on our existing relationship with 海角直播, which already includes collaborating on a UK-first research project.
