The Community Health and Wellbeing Worker Level 3 apprenticeship prepares individuals to work in partnership with people, communities and organisations to improve health outcomes, prevent ill-health and reduce inequalities.

Learners will develop the skills to support individuals using a holistic, person-centred approach that considers physical, mental, emotional and social wellbeing, while helping people access local services, resources and support networks.

Community Health and Wellbeing Workers collaborate with healthcare professionals, local authorities, charities and community groups to empower individuals and communities to address health challenges, build resilience and improve overall wellbeing.

Throughout the apprenticeship, learners will develop knowledge of health inequalities, the wider determinants of health, safeguarding, communication, behavioural science and community engagement. The programme covers partnership working, signposting and referral processes, supporting individuals and groups, promoting positive health and wellbeing, and understanding local services and community resources.
