African Caribbean Medical Mentors (ACMM) Hands-On Medicine Day

Try hands-on clinical skills and spend time with doctors, dentists and students from across medicine and dentistry at this in-person medicine taster day. The event is designed to give young people a practical flavour of the field, with opportunities to explore clinical skills, hear from people working in different areas, and learn more about what a career in medicine or dentistry can involve.

It is described as an experience of medicine rather than an application workshop, so the focus is on insight and exposure rather than admissions advice. Attendees can expect a short welcome, practical skills stations led by medical and dental students and clinicians, and brief sessions with professionals and students from different parts of the sector.

The day also includes light refreshments and a chance to sign up for ACMM mentoring. It is mainly aimed at Year 12 students, as well as anyone applying to medicine or dentistry in the 2027/28 cycle, including graduates.
