Hi everyone, I'm Sami. I'm standing for Events and Expeditions Officer because I'm passionate about organising exciting wilderness medicine events and activities. I'm currently in my fifth year of medicine and have a strong interest in pursuing expedition and wilderness medicine as a future career.
I'd love to help the current committee invite a variety of external speakers to give talks and run hands-on workshops on key topics and skills relevant to this field, such as first aid, airway management, and outdoor survival skills.
I'm also excited about planning both shorter day trips and weekend adventures for the society. Over the past few years, I've organised several hiking trips around the UK, including to the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia. Through these trips, I've developed confidence in planning routes and ensuring trips are safe and well-prepared.
As Events and Expeditions Officer, I'd love to help grow the society's programme of trips, talks, and workshops, and provide plenty of opportunities for members to learn new skills and explore the field of expedition and wilderness medicine.
