We are a group of 40 clinicians representing a number of boroughs across GM- we have a WhatsApp group to share updates, projects and discuss any queries related to Greener practice. We have a relaxed informal approach to meetings and meet via Zoom every 2 months with the occasional one to be done face to face. New members always welcome.
We are currently working on projects to reduce the carbon footprint of prescribing through changing inhalers – MDI to DPI inhalers – saving the CO2 equivalent of a return car trip from Manchester to Birmingham with each switch!
We are also working on projects to support patients (and each other) to live healthier and with a more positive impact on our environment – such as supporting walking and cycling initiatives.
We are looking to hear your ideas and projects you may already be working on so we can work together to make a bigger impact.
