According to recent data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), the UK’s health and social care sector faces a significant challenge—a skills gap of approximately 150,000 workers. This shortage limits the sector’s capacity to deliver quality care and hampers career growth for aspiring professionals. Addressing this gap requires innovative solutions to make high-quality training accessible and flexible for all.
