The Community Health and Wellbeing Worker Level 3 Apprenticeship offers a unique opportunity to develop people who have a passion for supporting Health and Wellbeing within communities and our workplaces.  The apprenticeship standard is focused on working in partnership with individuals and their communities to identify and address health and wellbeing needs, improve health, prevent ill-health and reduce inequalities.  The apprenticeship provides a strong foundation of knowledge, skills and behaviours and should enable the apprentice to:  

• address the causes of poor health and wellbeing in the broadest sense (causes of the causes). They do this by taking an holistic ‘whole person’ approach regarding physical, mental, emotional and social health and wellbeing and resilience. 
• work with individuals, groups and communities to identify what matters to them, building on their strengths to improve health and wellbeing. 
• understand the local and accessible services and resources available, to which people in the community can be signposted to support their health and wellbeing needs. 
• identify gaps in available services and resources preventing individuals and communities from achieving optimal health and wellbeing. 
• build relationships with local organisations and groups. 

We are holding a virtual employer engagement webinar on 03 July 2024 at 10.00 am to 11:30 am to share more information with organisations interested in this apprenticeship.
