VTS Book Club
Trainees can participate in the VTS book club, which meets once a year in a VTS session to discuss themes in selected books. Some of the books we have discussed include 'Between the World and Me' by Ta-Nehisi Coates, 'Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People about Race' by Reni-Eddo-Lodge, and 'We Are Displaced' by Malala Yousafzai. This activity promotes the importance of human stories and patient experiences in professional and personal development.

These days offer an opportunity for team learning in different environments. Trainees spend a whole day focusing on different aspects of general practice or self-development, working in groups and getting to know their peers. The days often include guest speakers, trainee-led sessions, and visits to places of interest to GPs, along with enjoyable meals.
