The Care Ambassadors aim is to promote social care as an exciting career option, demonstrate the range of benefits available in the sector and showcase the variety of jobs and careers available.

They do this by visiting schools, colleges, recruitment and careers events and other groups of people to share with them their own experiences of working in social care roles.

If you would like a Care Ambassador to visit your group please see our information for schools/colleges and other groups.
