Opening night: 26 March

Wake Up!'s Photo Exhibition Opening Night is on the 26 March, 2008 at the Royal Newcastle Centre, John Hunter Hospital.

Time: 5.30pm-8.30pm


Through holding this event, our aims are to:
a) Provide a focal point in raising awareness of global health inequalities in both the medical and wider Newcastle community.
b) Provide a forum where medical students can become involved in advocacy, education and activism in the issue of health inequality
c) Raise the public awareness of Wake Up! as an activism and educational group.

It is held in conjunction with a Birthing Kit Assembly Night, which will provide safe and clean births for mothers in developing countries.

Prizes will be given out on the night.
