Lincolnshire Health and Care Careers Event Returns to Inspire the Next Generation
Posted on 3rd September 2025
The Lincolnshire Health and Care Careers Event will return for its ninth year on Wednesday, 19 November 2025, at the Engine Shed, University of Lincoln. Organised by the Talent Academy, the event is set to welcome hundreds of students from across the county, offering a unique opportunity to explore careers in health and social care.
This annual event has become a cornerstone in Lincolnshire’s efforts to engage and inspire young people to consider careers in the health and care sectors. With over 50 employer career stands at the event’s marketplace, students will have the chance to meet professionals from a wide range of disciplines, including medicine, nursing, paramedicine, and social care.
In addition to the marketplace, students will have the opportunity to participate in interactive workshops designed to provide hands-on experience and insight into specific roles. Campus tours of the University of Lincoln will also be available, giving attendees a glimpse into student life and the University of Lincoln’s facilities.
Last year’s event saw over 1,100 students from more than 40 schools and colleges attend, with representation stretching from Scunthorpe in the north, to the east coast, and down to Boston and beyond. More than 400 students participated in workshops, which were unanimously rated as “good” or “excellent” by attendees.
Feedback from students highlighted the value and impact of the workshops, with many describing them as fun, engaging, and informative. Comments included praise for the helpfulness and friendliness of workshop leaders, and appreciation for the opportunity to try out practical skills and gain valuable knowledge, even for those not planning to pursue a career in health and social care.
One student remarked, “Very friendly and inclusive; I had an amazing time!”, while another said, “Even if you don’t leave inspired to pursue a health and social care job, you learn valuable skills everyone should know.”
The Lincolnshire Health and Care Careers Event continues to grow in reach and reputation, offering young people across the region a meaningful and inspiring experience that could shape their future career choices.
