Some of our members and colleagues will begin to observe Ramadan from today. You deserve support for this in the workplace. Please reach out to the BMA if you're a doctor or medical student with any concerns. bma.org.uk/about-us/conta…

Happy #WindrushDay! Today we celebrate 75 years since the #Windrush generation's arrival to the UK! The NHS and our society as a whole has benefited endlessly from the contributions and achievements of those passengers, and those who have followed. #WindrushDay

It’s 75 years since the #Windrush arrived in Britain. To reflect the contribution of overseas doctors to the NHS, the BMA has long called for all doctors who are on a path to settlement, and their dependents, to be granted free automatic Indefinite Leave to Remain. [1/2]
