    …t still have enough technical content. Additionally, this year due to COVID-19, the competition had to take place online with a virtual background. The real challenge for me was the fact that I had to prepare a script and memorise it to make sure I didn’t say anything too technical for my audience to understand.

    …unities. Student participation is vital and we are keen to develop a trauma-informed staff-student dialogue which breaks down issues of mistrust. This year the sexual consent modules were trialled by students studying from foundation to postgraduate level, and by a small group of staff.

  4. Supporting student mental health during the pandemic and beyond

    …oming weeks, the Students’ Union at Anglia Ruskin University is holding an online bake-off, mindfulness workshop and an arts and crafts workshop. We’ve been hosting similar activities at UWE Bristol and in February ran a series of feel good events, including a free, stand-up comedy event for students and staff featuring A-list comedians.

  5. The DTA Rep Committee: Amplifying the voice of PhD researchers

    …socialising, which supports motivation while promoting solidarity and peer-to-peer support. One of the key benefits I have gained from my role on the DTA Rep Committee, is developing intimate knowledge of the complexities and challenges associated with the Covid-19 pandemic.

  6. We need more than workshops to support the wellbeing of PhD researchers

    …ugh these they can then create the informal connections to receive the peer-to-peer support that may become vital for their wellbeing. Develop strong representation systems While it is great that Student Unions (SUs) cover postgraduate representation, I know from my own experience that undergraduate-focused SUs are not the best place for PhD issues to be actively listened to. PhD students need dedicated representation systems and the issues they r…

    …lly arrived. The first plan of its kind, the lengthy document sets out a 15-year plan to reform the workforce and “put the NHS on a sustainable footing into the future.” However, having now digested the detail, there are a few things we need to talk about if the plan is going to have the impact it needs. Firstly, the quality of professional health education in the United Kingdom cannot be eroded. The requirement of healthcare professionals to hold…

  9. Four reasons why Universities should be at the heart of the NHS Long-Term Workforce Plan

    …mulated training is here to stay and should now be invested in for the long-term. We are calling on the Government to continue to provide capital funding for simulation, and a long-term guarantee from the NHS that universities will continue to receive a proportion of the tariff to deliver simulated practice hours. This will support them to invest in the staff and equipment required to scale up their simulated training provision. A new regulatory f…
