Our community

Working in primary care sometimes can be isolating. We provide a close knit dietetic community with other FCDs across the country, sharing learning, experiences, difficulties and successes.

Our version of a great workplace is about investing in a dream team of talented dietitians who are excited to pursue ambitious shared goals.

We encourage collaboration, share information and discourage politics. It’s exhilarating to be a first contact dietitian and be a part of our journey.

Diversity & Inclusion

The leadership team have got unique backgrounds and we strive to employ dietitians who support and represent this diversity.

The UK is an incredibly diverse population. We believe that in order to best serve our patients, our team should represent the population.

We:

Welcome working with different backgrounds, identities, values and cultures in our team
Recognize that we all have biases and work to counteract them
Are excited to help build diverse teams where everyone feels welcomed and respected
Are committed to creating an environment where equal employment opportunities are available to all applicants
Treat everyone with respect regardless of their experience or positions

If you are a dietitian practicing in a different country, you are always welcome and we can support with Tier 2 (Health & Care) Visas. We allow for extended support and guidance before you start, to allow you to familiarise with a new area.
