3. The Story so far Love Our Learners is a programme of communication and engagement, running through all functions of Health Education East Midlands, working towards attracting and retaining learners into the East Midlands and its healthcare workforce. The programme aims were to build rapport, aid an understanding of the NHS and encouraging the learner to have a voice. Love Our Learners has shared its key messages about the work of Health Education England, Health Education East Midlands and the role of the learner in the NHS. This was achieved through a network of ambassadors working closely with Trusts & Higher Education Institutions, attending events, inductions, and staff recognition ceremonies.

5. Learner Feedback Lots of work goes into planning our training- I hadn't thought about this It’s good to know who is paying your fees I am only in my second week and I feel so welcomed and wanted I would like this session again at the end of my training Good employment prospects have focussed me and will motivate me to work hard on the course I realised how important we are- as part of the future of the NHS and keeping patients safe- scary thought at this point though Get involved at: em.hee.nhs.co.uk Developing people for health and healthcare @EastmidsLETB # LoveOurLearners Join the conversation:

6. Ambassador feedback It was brilliant to meet the learners, I would recommend that all employees of HEEM, whether PGME, corporate or workforce do this at least one. It really helps to bring home our role in the NHS - Orlando Hampton Positive to share with learners about who we are, I loved every minute; it took me back to my days when l was fresher - Khonzie Ndlovu-Gachengo Very worthwhile experience from my perspective, I really enjoyed meeting the students and telling them about HEEM - Jo Beckwith Get involved at: em.hee.nhs.co.uk Developing people for health and healthcare @EastmidsLETB # LoveOurLearners Join the conversation:
