To Medical Society Members.

May / June 2024. Lisa Bennett and I are making efforts to update the contact details we have for society members.

Things have changed a great deal over the past years, particularly since Kidderminster General Hospital was dramatically down graded - as well as the global provision of health care both locally and nationally. Consequently, the admirable relationship that existed between general practices and hospital consultants has all but disappeared - everything seems to have become impersonal and mechanically on-line! However, Kidderminster Medical Society still exists and a quick review of this website will give some idea of its main function which is to provide bursaries to medical students and post grads.

There has been a good response to the email I sent out and the number of members, both active and retired, is encouraging. Those who specifically asked to be removed from the contact list, along with those whose email address has been returned as non existent have been taken off the contact list. We are left with those who have replied (the majority) and those who have simply not replied (although their addresses are valid). Both the repliers and non-repliers will therefore remain on the active contact list.

The website is updated fairly regularly - mainly with reports from bursary recipients. You will be notified each time there is an update. If you wish to contribute to the site you are more than welcome to do so - just click on the send email notices above. One point which has been brought up by a number of members is to ask for the contact details of other members - website emails are sent out on an anonymous BCC basis but if you want contact details I am more than happy to send it once the prospective recipient has acquiesced.

Kind regards and best wishes to you all

Barrie Davies
