About this event

Medical schools require applicants to have an understanding of what a career in medicine involves. It is therefore essential that you have a chance to discuss medical careers and gain experience of how care is provided before you submit your application.

If you want to find out about what its like to train as a doctor, hear from our junior doctors and consultants, take part in practicals with our clinical staff and discuss the different career opportunities available then our Aspiring Medics programme is for you!

Alder Hey Academy

Every year we care for over 270,000 children, young people and their families and we lead research into children’s medicines, infection, inflammation and oncology. We moved to our new Alder Hey in the Park in early October 2015.

We know that a children’s hospital is different and that our job is more than just treating an illness. At Alder Hey we are here to look after a child and their family and that includes mums, dads, brothers and sisters.

We treat everything from common illnesses to highly complex and specialist conditions from our main hospital site in Liverpool and across community sites and clinics throughout the North West.

We are…

  • A Centre of Excellence for cancer, as well as spinal, heart and brain conditions
  • A Department of Health Centre for Head and Face Surgery
  • A Centre of Excellence for Muscular Dystrophy and the first UK Centre of Excellence for Childhood Lupus
  • One of four national centres for childhood epilepsy surgery, a joint service with the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital
  • A designated Children’s Major Trauma Centre
  • We have Europe’s first intra-operative 3-T MRI scanner which is a pioneering technology for neurosurgery, reducing repeat operations in 90% of cases
  • A World Health Organisation accredited Health Promoting Hospital
