        Event Details

        God calls us to care for the stranger in our midst, to protect orphans and widows, to ‘act justly and love mercy’ . (Micah 6:8) How does this translate to the way we care today?

        Given the proposed changes to the way that our asylum system works, how can we provide the best possible healthcare to those in need?

        The ‘Refugees and Asylum Seekers Health Course’ (RASH) aims to equip Christian healthcare practitioners and others to:

        • Improve knowledge of the healthcare needs, responses and challenges for refugees and asylum seekers in the UK
        • Hear examples of good practice
        • Foster a dialogue among those working with refugees and asylum seekers for mutual encouragement and support
        • Inspire creative ways to engage with health systems for better provision, support, and care

        View the full programme here.

        The programme is an interactive learning experience led both by those who have been refugees and those who are healthcare professionals in this field. Local charities or churches working with refugees and asylum seekers will also find this day useful. If you encounter people from outside the UK in your everyday practice, then this is the day for you.

        Who are you?

        It is a fundamental question to answer as you start your journey as a health professional. The world has a lot of answers, you are your job, your sexuality, your gender, or your racial and national identity. But the gospel of Jesus tells us that we are forgiven, we are chosen, we are beloved, we are made holy, and we are God’s own treasured possession. How do we live out that truth in our everyday life, our studies, and our careers?

Has the RCP’s reluctance to issue guidance on fMRI scans for coma patients become indefensible?

August 18, 2021/in Blog, End of Life, Medical Practice Dr Rick Thomas

In March 2020, the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) in the UK published national guidelines on the management of patients with prolonged disorders of consciousness (PDOC).

‘I’m Going to Convert You’

August 4, 2021/in Blog, Gender Identity Guest

Conversion Therapy Ban ‘I’m going to convert you.’ It has a paternalistic – perhaps even narcissistic – ring to it. To our modern ears, it implies some kind of forceful transformation of one vulnerable party to be something they are not. Its ancient roots flow from the Latin con– (altogether) and vertere (turn). Christians often speak about converting […]

Downright Discrimination – the issues in the Heidi Crowter case

On July 6th and 7th 2021, Heidi Crowter made history. She is the first woman with Down syndrome to take the State to court over the discrimination inherent in our abortion law. Her co-claimants Máire Lea-Wilson and her son Aidan (pictured) also feel passionately about this discrimination. (At least, Máire does, Aidan was just happy […]

Capturing the language of (assisted) death

July 29, 2021/in Blog, End of Life Guest

Those promoting the agenda that, in plain speaking, wants the UK to legalise doctors to be able to provide a prescription for a lethal draught with which patients can kill themselves, have a long history of shape-shifting their language. Morphing from the Voluntary Euthanasia Society to Dignity in Dying in 2006 was a smart – […]

Forcing vaccines on care workers won’t help

June 16, 2021/in Blog, Medical Practice Guest

Media reports today (16 June 2021) suggest that the UK government is likely to make Covid vaccination mandatory for care home staff, and possibly directly employed NHS staff.

June 10, 2021/in Blog, Gender Identity Jennie Pollock

‘Don’t bother the midwife’: abortion as a parable for assisted suicide

May 27, 2021/in Blog, End of Life, Society, Start of Life Jennie Pollock

The current series of Call the Midwife is set in 1966. We dispensed with World Cup fever in about half an episode and are now focussing on other things in the news that year. The most significant of these, from a midwifery perspective, was David Steel’s Abortion Reform Bill which was then going through Parliament. […]

COVAX – Its opportunities and challenges

May 18, 2021/in Blog, Global Health and Mission Guest

Early in the pandemic (24 April 2020), long before any manufacturer had a vaccine ready for sale, long before results of trials had been published, a novel collaboration was established to ensure equitable global distribution of COVID-19 vaccines when any became available.

Can we vaccinate our way out of the pandemic?

May 13, 2021/in Blog, Global Health and Mission Steve Fouch

Here in the UK, we have been feeling pretty good about ourselves recently, with (at the time of writing) over 35 million adults having been partially vaccinated and more than 18 million fully vaccinated.
