Join BIMA in Birmingham for an exclusive fireside discussion hosted by Dr Shehla Imtiaz-Umer with renowned journalist and political commentator Sami Hamdi, as we explore what it means to speak with conviction in an age of pressure, polarisation, and public scrutiny.

This closed dinner event, designed especially for those working in healthcare, aims to motivate, empower, and inspire.

Together, we’ll reflect on what it takes to speak truth to power while navigating complex systems, public expectations, and the moral weight of our work.
