Welfare and Diversity representative 2020-21: Pooja Patel
Hi there! My name is Pooja and I’m your Welfare and Diversity rep for this academic year. My main role involves being a point of contact for my fellow students should they need help, advice or simply a friendly chat! I will be working throughout the year to make sure our welfare system is the best it can be and how it can improve.
My other roles include organising the mentoring scheme for our new first year students to be welcomed in September, planning some fun stress relieving events and more informative events on how we can stay educated on diversity in medicine and our wider society.
If you want to get in touch you can contact me by email (
welfare@lmssonline.com), Facebook messenger or in person!
