On World Patient Safety Day 2024, Doctors’ Association UK, supported by multiple other health organisations, is proud to launch the website “Our Health, Our Planet”. Designed for anyone who works in, or uses healthcare services in the UK (i.e. everyone!), this is the ultimate guide to the relationship between climate change and human health, particularly focussing on the health effects to the UK population.
Developed by volunteers, we believe it to be the largest and most comprehensive project of its kind in the UK, possibly globally.
With a pre-recorded opening address from Professor Hugh Montgomery, Dr Matthew Lee (Sustainability Lead for DAUK) and colleagues will explore the website and its features and explain how you can get involved and help us to use the healthcare system to save the world!
