      In recent years, women have made up the majority of medical students, however female representation in senior medical positions and surgical specialties has not caught up. Our society will aim to improve this gap by: - Empowering - Elevating - Educating We are committed to creating a supportive and inclusive space for the advocacy of women in medical and surgical careers. Through hosting a variety of guest speaker events, workshops and collaborations, we will connect members with mentors, build networks and gain practical insights into a variety of careers. We aspire to host a national conference, we could join forces with wider platforms to provide opportunities for our community to showcase their research, promote ambition, all the while, developing the confidence and skills needed to excel in fulfilling and successful careers.
