Student Inclusion Health Society

About Us

Think globally. Act locally.

We are the Student Inclusion Health Society, a group of students at UCL working with our Junior Doctor lead. Our aim is to empower students to engage in inclusion health initiatives through capacity-building workshops and meaningful discussions. Last year, we had the Changemaker series, external speaker events, student-led workshops and our symposium!

Our society is open to everyone. We offer:

A safe space to have open and thoughtful discussions about different topics surrounding inclusion health every week
An opportunity to lead your own workshop and teach other members about an inclusion health topic you are passionate about
Writing opportunities for our blog
Snacks!

Please get in touch if you're interested in joining - we'd be delighted to hear from you. :)

Committee

Programme Lead - Jey Jeyapala
As the lead for the Student Inclusion Health Network I have been fortunate enough to work with an inspirational team of students setting up the UCL SIHS. We exist to bridge the gap between the world of undergraduate academia and the practical implementation of real-world health interventions. My role is to provide support, guidance and training for the UCL SIHS programme. This is informed though my clinical work as an Internal Medical Trainee in North West London and as a clinical fellow with the Enhance Generalist Skills Programme, in addition to my experience working with third sector organisations in the UK and abroad advocating for health justice.

President - Abhi

Treasurer - Yahvi

Welfare Officer - Lizzie

Student groups are run by UCL students and facilitated by Students’ Union UCL. The Union is an educational charity and part of how it supports the education of students at UCL is through facilitating a diverse range of opportunities for students to run, join and experience different interests, groups and activities. Each student group decides its own events, activities and views (within our risk management framework).

Student groups are intended to represent the full range of views amongst our diverse student community. The Union does not endorse, approve or speak for any student group, and their statements and activities do not represent the Union’s position.
