It is vitally important that whilst we focus our energy on caring for and looking after our patients, that we do take time to look after ourselves. Please find below links to a number of resources that you may find useful. Andrew Day, the ALSGBI Welfare Officer, is always happy to discuss any problems you may be having in person. If a face-to-face meeting would be of value to you please contact Jennifer Treglohan at jtreglohan@alsgbi.org and arrangements can be made.
