INTRODUCTION
The society was created in 1874 to further medical education by promoting the exchange of views between health professionals on local health matters and to contribute to informed debate within the professions. It has continued ot carry this out for almost 150 years and is now registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation [Charity No: 1181791].
There is a monthly lecture programme which, as part of our charitable function, is free to all. Please do come. We ask that you let our administrator know you are coming purely so we have an idea of numbers attending.
The programme listings for the current session can be found by clicking on this link.
The website has two main sections:
These are the public domain section which includes the programme of meetings, a growing collection of photographs of the West Country and the history of the society.
It also includes the abstracts from our own electronic journal, the West of England Medical Journal, and articles from previous issues. Full access to the journal is available via the members section and the journal becomes available to non-members three months later.
The president elect is Prof David Cahill. A full programme is about to be published but will anticipate having online talks this calendar year if physical meetings with meals are not considered safe.
