Sustainability in Healthcare is a newly formed society looking to raise awareness around everyday environmental issues we encounter in the field of healthcare, and promote ways in which we could develop more sustainable practice.

The health effects of climate change are likely to be among the most pressing issues future healthcare providers will face globally. Providing a society that explores these issues allows students to gain a greater understanding of the problems they may face in future practice, and give them opportunities to contribute to change.

Our Society provides a platform for students to come together and address a variety of sustainability issues. We collaborate with the university, and the wider society to bring to you monthly guest speaker talks and social events.

Stay tuned for updates about upcoming events and speakers!

The Centre for Sustainable Healthcare is offering a free student-led 4-part online Zoom series; featuring experts and students, who come together in conversation to examine the relationship between climate injustice and healthcare.

The newly formed Sustainability in Healthcare society is hosting our first event! We would love for you to join us in our beach clean of Barry Beach. We will be spending the morning of 18th September picking up as much litter as we can to help clean the beach. With the number of masks the healthcare industry has got through since the start of Covid, we think there will be lots to pick up amongst other rubbish! There will be more information to follow but please click interested/ going if you would like to come.

When? SATURDAY 18TH SEPTEMBER
Where? BARRY ISLAND BEACH
