Information for FOUNDATION TRAINEES in KSS

From 2nd August 2023 Foundation trainees in Kent, Surrey & Sussex will not be able to access support (including workshops and groups) via the London PSU. If you are a KSS Foundation trainee you can access local support via: https://kss.hee.nhs.uk/kss-fou...

I confirm I have NOT previously attended this workshop.
