SAVE DOCTORS LIVES

About Our Campaign

The objectives of our campaign is to make doctors’ working hours safe:

  • Junior doctors should not work more than 48 hours in any 5-day period
  • Working periods should be followed by 2 days off
  • Actual working hours should be recorded.

Donate to Shelter

As a medical student Lauren donated to Shelter, despite it occasionally causing her to go overdrawn. She said that Shelter gave to people who had less than her. Lauren would be pleased to know that she is still working for a cause close to her heart.
