A 2-year programme delivered by Hull York Medical School at the University of Hull is available to all GPs within 12 months of qualifying (there are also limited places available for GPs who have qualified within the past 24 months). The programme provides a weekly educational session and will help build the experience, skills and confidence that will support future careers in primary care medicine. A bursary is available to support release for 1 session per week.

Educational sessions are currently on Wednesdays, one full day every two weeks (averaging 1 session per week). The 2023/24 Cohort began in September 2023, it is anticipated that the 2024/25 Cohort will begin in September 2024.

Enhanced Offer

A 2-year programme delivered by the HNY Primary Care Workforce & Training Hub. This programme offers a supported introduction to life as a qualified GP and is available to GPs that have qualified within the past 24 months. The enhanced offer would involve a weekly fellowship session and is available alongside Catalyst. The focus of the fellowship time can be planned to suit the GPs interest, for example, education, teaching and training, research, leadership, specialist clinical placements or project work. Each fellow will be assigned a Fellowship Facilitator available for guidance, and meet in small group sessions approximately every two months.

Funding to support this element of the programme is primarily targeted at practices that have been identified as being within under doctored areas across the Humber and North Yorkshire region (Hull, North East Lincolnshire, Withernsea, Bridlington, Hornsea and Scarborough). A bursary is available to support release for 1 session per week.

The Enhanced offer is a locally funded HNY initiative aimed at supporting recruitment in the hardest to recruit to areas.
