What is a Care Ambassador?

  • Care Ambassadors are people working in social care who act as role models to inspire and encourage others to consider careers in the sector.
  • They are nominated by their employers and chosen for their enthusiasm, commitment, confidence, the wish to portray a positive image of the care sector, and the ability to convey their passion to others in an informed way. 
  • The Ambassadors are involved in programmes of working with schools, colleges, the Society Health & Development Diploma and Apprenticeship partnerships, and a wide range of community groups and organisations such as Jobcentre Plus, Gateway to Work and the Prince's Trust.
  • Care Ambassadors continually promote their own organisation as well as the sector as a whole and can be an organisation's best recruitment tool by being a direct link to the future workforce.  

How to get involved….

We would be asking for no more than four hours of a staff member’s time per month and Ambassadors largely attend events in their local area.   This is a great opportunity for personal development.
 
To be considered for the project you must complete and return a Nomination Form (please see the attachment below).
