Student Engagement Forum

At Bolton NHS Foundation Trust the students’ voice matters and as such it is high on the pre-registration team’s agenda.  The Trust has created a platform – Student Engagement Forum - for students to voice their views regarding issues that affect them.  The inaugural events were held in May and July 2016, the months when we had the highest numbers of students on placement at the Trust.

The Student Engagement Forum was delivered as a workshop consisting of several activities that were designed to maximise students’ participation. The students’ opinions were central to all discussions and staff acted mainly as facilitators.
