We’re looking for health visitors who are interested in becoming an Ambassador for Changing Conversations within their local area.
Changing Conversations is an exciting new project focused on a range of new online resources for health visitors to support their role with children with autism and their families. Supported by the Burdett Trust for Nursing, the iHV has co-developed these resources in partnership with families and field experts which will be available as part of a digital toolkit via a unique login on the iHV website
