The Severn SWOT Committee is a group of O&G trainees who volunteer to improve and address issues related to training in O&G in our region. The committee acts as a channel of communication between Severn trainees and the Severn School of O&G, as well as the RCOG’s National Trainees Committee. The committee co-ordinates the ST1/2 teaching and regional training programmes, AGM, ATSM evening and ST1 induction afternoon. If you are interested in finding out more or being involved, please get in touch.
