Thinking of coming back to your profession?
If you have taken a career break from the NHS, social care, education, independent or charity sector, returning to practice is easier than you think. Across Hampshire and Isle of Wight (HIOW), our partners are committed to providing a personalised approach to support you to return to the HCPC register; and hopefully go on to find a local job that is right for you.

- The NHS England website has a wealth of information about the return to practice scheme.
If you wish to progress your return to practice journey you can register with the AHP Faculty by emailing hiowicb-hsi.hiow.ahp.faculty@nhs.net We will work with you to get your supervised placement set up. You can also use the form below to request a call back.
Additional support available via the AHP Faculty:
For the first 20 returning AHPs to sign up in 2023, in addition to the support you will receive within your host organisation, you will also be able to sign up for a fully funded programme of facilitated action learning sets (ALS) through a virtual platform. The purpose of the action learning will be to connect with other AHPs across HIOW who are also returning to practice.
Action learning is a method of collaborative learning where a small group of learners (an ‘action learning set’) meets regularly to reflect on real work issues. The action learning set will help group members make changes to their current or future roles, or tackle joint projects, often working across functions for the benefit of the organisation as a whole.We are delighted to be working with Hart Ridge Consulting Ltd for the ALS programme.
