Wilderness Medics society

Do you ever feel that hospitals are just a bit too...clean? Dry? Not quite wilderness enough? Then the Wilderness Medics Society is for you! We aim to provide outdoors-minded healthcare science students with opportunities to practise their medical skills in environments very different to what you might be used to, with talks from expedition medics and adventurers, teaching sessions from clinicians and even camping trips.

Last year the Wilderness Medics Society spent a weekend camping under shelters they built themselves, under the instruction of an ex-Royal Marine. This year, we have even more trips to the wilderness planned. If you have a sense of adventure, whether you’re a seasoned adventurer, aspiring expedition medic or have never even camped before, then wilderness medics society wants you!
