About Ambition24hours Locum & Allied

A division of A24 Group. Connecting healthcare facilities with qualified locum doctors and allied health professionals since 1996.

Nearly 30 Years of Healthcare Staffing

Ambition24hours was founded in 1996 by Penny Streeter OBE and her mother, Marion Hewson — with a simple belief that healthcare professionals deserve better support and facilities deserve reliable staffing.

From those origins, the business grew into one of the UK's leading healthcare staffing groups. Ambition24hours Locum and Allied is the medical and allied health division of the A24 Group, specialising in the placement of locum doctors, GP locums, and allied health professionals across the UK.

We operate nationally across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland — and internationally through A24 Group operations in the USA and South Africa. Our network gives NHS trusts and private healthcare providers access to a deep pool of pre-vetted, compliant clinical professionals.
