Get started
The Allied Health Professions are a family of specialist roles who use their knowledge and skills to help patients live the fullest lives possible. They work directly with patients, so they can see the difference they make every day. Allied Health Professionals make up the third largest clinical workforce in the NHS. There are 15 different roles working across a range of sectors from emergency response and diagnosis to mental and physical rehabilitation.
Studying to become an Allied Health Professional is very hands-on. You’ll help real patients as you earn your degree, and graduate ready to start a fulfilling career.
