Bristol NHS Foundation Trust launched the Community Participation Group one year ago.

As one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, we bring together a combined workforce of over 28,000 staff across more than 100 different clinical services. We serve a core population of over 1.1 million people across Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire and the South West, with 13 sites located throughout Bristol, Weston, and the surrounding area. We are a centre of excellence in a wide range of specialties, including orthopaedics, neurosciences, renal, transplant, paediatric neuro-oncology, health research, and neonatal care. We work hard to maintain an environment of continuous learning and development. We are the largest teaching trust in the South West and the major medical research and training centre in the region, with strong links to the University of the West of England and the University of Bristol. Bristol NHS FT is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. As an equal opportunities employer actively working towards a diverse workforce, we aim to recruit and retain a workforce which represents the rich diversity of the local population at all levels and are committed to designing our services around the needs of individual patients and those around them. Anonymous information will be used from your application in order to ensure we’re meeting our pledge.
