Fellowship Programme

Open to people working across VCFSE, primary care and secondary care, including mental health. The Fellowship programme will enable cross-sectoral learners from a non-public health background to develop their knowledge and skills in population health, equality and sustainability and to put their learning into practice in their workplace with guidance from professional mentors. A limited scheme is underway as proof of concept, with learnings intended to build out a more substantive scheme across the next 3 years increasing capacity for up to 30 GM fellows.
