The Year 1 Fellows

Closing date for applications: 25 June 2025

We cannot say too often how much we welcome applications from all settings in health and social care across the UK, from nurses and midwives from any background; in fact, it’s one of the strengths of all FoNS programmes. The opportunity to learn with and from others, especially others from different cultures and ways of working, is given as one of the things that participants value.

Martyn Souter (Inspire Improvement year 6) said in a recent interview: On the first day, I was wondering if I was going to be able to relate to this group of people because we came from such different backgrounds geographically and from a speciality perspective. But what the programme showed me is that, leadership, if you strip it down, it doesn’t come down to what specific job you’re doing. It’s about the values that the leader has.

If you would like the opportunity to be part of the Person-centred Cultures Development Programme or know someone who you feel would benefit from this opportunity, please take a look at/share the link to the programme pages.

We welcome applications from diverse backgrounds.
