Join Glasgow Wilderness and Extreme Medicine Society (GWEMS) for our hands-on taster session! Come along, meet our committee and have a play with our favourite medical kit. Try CPR, trauma care and patient communication - even wrestle your friends onto spinal boards!
Everyone is welcome, no experience needed, and we'd love for you to come along and learn something new. It's not just for medical students!
