Thank you so much to everyone who came on the BUWMS trip to sunny snowdonia!!! We had such a good time with a lovely long walk on Saturday and ALS teaching on Sunday (scaring the locals with the newly named Manny Quin). It has made us all the more excited for wild trials next weekend. Lessons learned: 1. Oscar has his own ways to grate cheese 2. Never trust Caitlin to make the porridge 3. Remember your suncream. Can’t wait for future BUWMS events! Keep your eyes peeled x

We will be meeting at the Richmond building, leaving at 2pm, (get there 5/10 mins before) and going on a lovely wander to Ashton court and back with a few challenges along the way….
Freshies this is an excellent opportunity to explore more of bristol, meet some new people, and learn a bit of extra medicine to show off to your mates.
Oldies make sure you grab the opportunity to shake out your arthritis with some gentle exercise, and the chance to show off to the freshers with all of your wise wise knowledge.

**Make sure you wear sufficient shoes as it may be muddy, and bring a jumper and a coat in case of cold or rain- we will be outside the whole time.
