Student Ambassador Programme

Our student ambassador programme has been running since late 2019 and we are now aiming to enlarge this so that we have at least one ambassador in every medical school and other healthcare education programmes.

Holistic Health Education

At the request of our first set of student ambassadors we created a comprehensive course which aims to give a foundational understanding of holism and its application to healthcare and professional development. Student members can access this course for only £5. Go to our course: The Holistic Practitioner.
