The BME (Black and Minority Ethnic) Medics Society was founded in 2018 by a group of Black medical students at the University of Liverpool. Their aim was to combat the feeling of isolation often felt by minority ethnicities within the NHS by creating a community in which they could share experiences and learn together.
Since then, aims of the society have expanded to include increasing cultural awareness within the healthcare system and working to reduce racial health inequalities. This has been achieved through incredible teaching events for all students, fundraisers for local charities, our first Inequalities in Healthcare conference and several Cultural events- the biggest being our annual Culture Ball.
