- Raise awareness of the multitude of healthcare careers in the NHS
- Widen participation into healthcare degrees, apprenticeships and careers

- Applications to healthcare degree are declining including an 11% decrease in the number of nursing students starting courses between 2021-2022
- 18.7% of NHS staff have experienced bullying or harassment from a colleague in the past year
- Hierachal systems within the NHS discourage staff from speaking up about potential safety incidents leading to patients being at harm
