BAMMbino will have it's own strand at the BAMM Summer School event on Wednesday 11th June at the Marriott Hotel in Leeds City Centre. Following a few exciting presentations that we have in the pipeline (which we will tell you more about as the information is available) we will hold our first AGM. The cost for the day will be minimal and on top of that any BAMMbino members who wish to stay for the rest of BAMM's Summer School will be offered a very special 10% discount to the main conference.

Why BAMMbino?
In recent years, it has become increasingly apparent that the medical profession needs to develop high quality leadership and management skills in order to effectively participate in the great healthcare debate. Work by the Royal Colleges, NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement and BAMM has called for these skills to be nurtured from an early stage in doctor's careers, but there is little support and advice for those who wish to be the Clinical Directors, Medical Directors and Chief Medical Officers of the future.
At BAMMbino, we intend to create a living network of enthusiastic Junior Doctors who see medical management and leadership as an intrinsic part of their future careers. By acting as a portal for information, advice and support we will be building on the ethos of BAMM to help create a new generation of doctors who will be able to work proactively in and with the ever-changing healthcare environment.
Our intention is to deliver a service that will guide our members through the latest hot topics, encourage their own attempts to improve services for patients, and help mentor them through the ups and downs of their individual careers.
If you are a keen medical student, F1, F2, SHO or SpR who shows an interest in the ‘bigger picture' then let us know by sending their details to
