BFIRST WEBINARS

BFIRST have hosted a number of webinars in recent months, both independently and in collaboration with the British Society for Surgery of the Hand, the British Burn Association and many more global surgery partners. BFIRST is still looking to expand on its educational webinar capacity, we are therefore keen to advertise freely available educational opportunities from other organisations.

Volunteering

BFIRST is keen for surgeons, nurses and allied specialists to all get involved. Please do get in touch if you are interested. Reconstructive surgery is a team sport!

Also, if you have ideas for new projects that you would like to start, perhaps in new countries, or in areas we already work in, we would love to hear about these, and discuss further.

Please get into contact at info@bfirst.org.uk
