On 3rd July, Ant and Willow attended a conference on "Leading for the future", featuring talks on improving education for students and doctors. They presented ORHI as an example of social accountability, and how it benefits students in addition to the populations we're helping.🫂

Thank you @HelenRSalisbury for writing about the @ORHI_UK - a project that educates our medical students in looking after asylum seekers holistically whilst providing much needed support.

And thank you @PrincipalSomOx for supporting our beloved project.
