For over a decade, The Prince's Trust has run courses to connect its pipeline of young talent (16-30 years old) into health and social care careers. In 2019, The Department of Health and Social Care, in collaboration with Health Education England, invested in scaling up the courses as part of its "widening participation" strategy. The Department gave The Prince's Trust a four-year grant to support 10,000 young, work-ready people from diverse backgrounds into jobs, helping organisations recruit a workforce reflective of the local community.
