You’ll also co-design an exciting programme of social events, youth voice opportunities, digital content and residential events. You will act as the bridge between young people, their families and professionals - especially in healthcare settings where you will play a unique role working collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams. You will support young people during the pivotal transition from paediatric to adult services and life, making sure it is a time of empowerment and growth.
