Ben Wildblood, a medical student at UCL will be running the Bath half marathon to fund raise for SMMHEP on 7th March 2010. He's recently returned from Malawi on his undergraduate elective - inspired by his time with Rob Stewart at Zomba Mental Hospital, he wanted to do something to help the education of his peers at the College of Medicine and mental health education development in Malawi. Follow the link to support Ben in his good efforts.
On Saturday 27th of February 2010, a very successful open meeting was held at the College of Medicine, Blantyre to plan the formation of a Mental Health service users and carers society for Malawi.
The meeting was attended by over 30 users and carers, as well as representatives from College of Medicine, Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital, FEDOMA (Federation of Disability Organisations of Malawi) and SMMHEP (Scotland-Malawi Mental Health Education Project).
