HealthcareToo: Sexism and Sexual Violence in the Healthcare Workforce

Date: 12 November 2024

Venue: virtually via MedAll

Event Summary:

Join Surviving in Scrubs for our first national webinar series focused on sexism, sexual harassment, and sexual assault in the UK healthcare workforce. Founded by Dr. Becky Cox and Dr. Chelcie Jewitt, Surviving in Scrubs is an organisation dedicated to raising awareness about sexual misconduct in the healthcare workplace—an issue long overlooked. By collecting and amplifying anonymous testimonies from healthcare professionals, Surviving in Scrubs pushes for change within NHS trusts, medical colleges, and healthcare regulators across the UK.

In this webinar series, Dr. Cox and Dr. Jewitt, along with experts and survivors, will explore key topics such as the scope of the issue, the impact on survivors, and what must be done to create a safer culture.

Starting on 12th November each monthly session will be hosted on MedAll, designed to both educate and empower participants. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of the conversation and help push for meaningful change. Whatever your background or discipline we want your support.
