The Christie NHS Foundation Trust’s Post

Last week, we had the honour of celebrating an incredible group of teenagers and young adults who completed courses during their time at The Christie. 🎓 These courses, offered through AQA (one of the UK’s largest exam boards), cover a wide range of topics—from maths and science to CV writing and interview prep. This is all part of our pilot education and employment programme, specifically designed to support young people with cancer, both during and after treatment. The Christie was the first AQA-accredited hospital in the country, and since the programme began in late 2022, patients have completed over 250 modules. A huge congratulations to our class of 2025!
