As Healthcare Science week 2010 approaches in March (12-21st) we really need your help to make it a success!
If you feel you or your colleagues would like to be involved then we would be delighted to have you as a STEMNET Healthcare Science ambassador www.stemnet.org.uk please mention you work for the NHS in your application as there are very few NHS ambassadors nationally so they will be delighted. They give full training and support to any ambassador activity.
The NHS is now a corporate sponsor of the national science event called The Big Bang Fair www.thebigbangfair.co.uk March 11-13th 2010 and this year it will be held in Manchester with an expected 20000 visitors. The NHS stand will need Healthcare Science Ambassadors to talk to the public and schools about the amazing work Healthcare Scientists do so if you feel you can help please get in touch at diagnoseit@dh.gsi.gov.uk.
If you want to hold your own event for Healthcare Science week or work with a local school to assist in the national Healthcare Science competition "Diagnose It" then contact us as diagnoseit@dh.gsi.gov.uk
Please circulate this email to all your professional networks and Healthcare Science colleagues locally and nationally.
