Nightingale Care Bursary

Essex County Council is investing an additional £1.8m to help hundreds more candidates access the bursary across the next three years, backing the belief that a society is judged by the way it cares for older and more vulnerable people. The NCB aims to support people from the most deprived communities in Essex to achieve social care qualifications or support existing care workers to achieve further qualifications.

The next phase of the bursary began in September 2022 and will run until August 2025.
