A RECRUITMENT bus will be visiting Huddersfield on Thursday in a bid to attract more staff for the NHS.

It will park by the Shore Head branch of Sainsbury's between noon and 2pm

People will have the opportunity to view the type of jobs on offer and ask questions.

Staff from local NHS organisations will provide careers advice and advise people considering returning to the health service.

Graham Saunders, chief executive of the West Yorkshire Workforce Development Confederation, said:

"We hope the bus will help the people of West Yorkshire to learn of the many and varied employment opportunities available within the NHS, particularly if working in the health service is something they hadn't previously considered."

More information about the bus will also appear on the national NHS careers website at http://www.nhscareers. nhs.uk
