GARC selected as charity partner of NECTM6

GARC are delighted to have been selected as a charity partner of the 6th Northern European Conference on Travel Medicine. 

This partnership recognises that rabies is a modern tragedy: a totally preventable disease which nevertheless still poses a deadly threat to billions of people around the world - including those who travel in endemic areas.

The conference, to be held in London 1st-4th June 2016, is an ideal opportunity for learning and networking in all aspects of travel health. It reflects the multi-disciplinary nature of the sector with sessions catering specifically for nurses, pharmacists, clinicians, academics and students. You can find out more about this conference and download past abstracts here [http://nectm.com]

We, at GARC, look forward to working with the conference organisers over the coming year but, in the meantime, if you’re looking for a way to support rabies prevention, why not consider joining TeamNECTM6? [http://nectm.com/charity-project-2/join-team-nectm6/]

Their first event is The Great North Swim, at Lake Windermere in the Lake District, on Sunday 14th June. Find out more about this and other fundraising events by emailing the team here [email protected]  

And if you don't feel like getting wet but you do want to help, please donate to or sponsor the team via their Just Giving page here https://www.justgiving.com/Team-NECTM6
