Trust Headquarters was buzzing with excitement as teams of experts from more than 30 departments across the Trust answered questions and were also able to help people apply for jobs on the spot!
Everyone attending the hugely successful even was able to find out about a variety of careers from portering, nursing, administration, IT and catering, to name but a few.
