We spoke with art therapist Tim Wright, previous chair of British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT) and co-chair of the group that started the new art therapy course at Teesside University, about why degree apprenticeships are valuable to students and employers.
Many young people are motivated by a career in healthcare but are being put off. Emma Dodsworth from the Nuffield Trust explains why young people aren’t going into healthcare degrees and how the NHS, education leaders and the government can work together to deliver the NHS workforce of the future.

Emma is a researcher at the Nuffield Trust. She has worked on a number of projects on the NHS workforce and co-authored Waste not, want not: Strategies to improve the supply of clinical staff to the NHS.
