WMS Societies and Sports Clubs

Although it's a busy course, networks and societies provide us with a much-needed break from academia, whilst still being social across cohorts or developing our interests. Whether it's sport, art, volunteering, culture, a skill - or, yes, learning about a speciality! - there's plenty more to do at WMS.

Please note - our Sports groups are set to review their partnership with the Sports Federation, and as such the groups listed here may not be accurately tagged as being under MedSoc or Federation. The new MedSports President Dan BaileyLink opens in a new window will be surveying the opinions of WMS students on this. Please bear with us!

Last year’s events (all photos on Instagram):
- Make a Clay Pot
- Selecting art for the MTC from Warwick’s archives

WMS Student Action for Refugees (STAR)

We run volunteering sessions at Coventry Refugee and Migrant Centre- teaching first aid to displaced people living locally. We also work with local refugee charities to run educational events and fundraisers to advocate for the rights of refugees and campaign against hostile immigration policies. We hope to make WMS students more aware of how hostile immigration policy impacts people’s health and how we, as medics, can work for the better health of all people regardless of their country of origin.

WMS Teddy Bear Hospital (TBH)

Teddy Bear Hospital is a voluntary project aimed at children of primary school age. We organise Teddy Bear Hospital events throughout the academic year, where children are invited to bring along their 'poorly' teddies to visit the Teddy Bear Doctor, where they will receive 'treatment' at the clinic.

The events enable WMS students to further develop their interaction skills with children, whilst educating children about health and wellbeing in a fun and friendly way and hopefully reducing any nerves about trips to the doctor/ hospital.
