EFFORTS to attract former health professionals back to work with a local NHS trust are continuing later this month.

An open evening is being held at the Friarage Hospital in Northallerton, North Yorkshire, on July 19, from 7pm to 9pm.

Staff will be on hand to talk about opportunities for nurses, midwives and professions allied to medicine to go back to work in the NHS.

The drop-in event will be held in the hospital's recreation hall. For further information, contact Lin Clarkson or Maria Tate on (01609) 779911.
