The Cheshire and Merseyside AHP Faculty is very excited for you to join us as we celebrate our first birthday by launching our AHP Practice Placement Toolkit. The toolkit was developed as part of the Health Education England (HEE) funded AHP Clinical Placement Expansion Programme. It contains strategies, including videos designed and enacted by Cheshire and Merseyside clinicians, that placement educators can utilise to increase placement capacity and enhance the quality of placements.

In addition to expressing our gratitude to all those who have worked hard to develop the toolkit, we will be:

• Showcasing the contents of the toolkit
• Showing you how to access the toolkit 
• Sharing plans to continue and embed this work

We welcome all those interested in facilitating student placements and those looking to use innovative and exciting ideas to increase capacity in their organisation/region.  

The event is aimed at the AHP workforce, leadership and Students, Professional Bodies, Private and voluntary sector, Higher Education Institutes, Local Authorities, HR, Workforce, Education and Development teams, regional AHP Faculty members and anyone who is interested in facilitating student placements. 

There is no need to register in advance for the event, however please join 5 minutes beforehand so we can start promptly. We cannot add each individual email address to an outlook invite, therefore please save the Microsoft Teams joining link in your diary. Please share the invite with your colleagues and spread the word about the fantastic new tools they can use to support the next generation of Allied Health Professions.
