This will be a great opportunity for personal spiritual renewal as well as prayer for the healthcare professions and the challenges we face at the present time. It will be a structured pilgrimage but also with freedom to pursue individual paths during the weekend.

We have secured comfortable accommodation in Elmham House which is in the centre of the village close to all the holy sites and places of interest.

There are also single and shared rooms at lower cost once all ensuite rooms are taken.

- Informed Opinion -

“From the time when I was a Medical Student, through the years of training jobs and now as a Senior Consultant, the CMA has been my first port of call to seek guidance when faith and clinical practice are incongruent - highly recommended to those who wish to seek the truth that Jesus Christ offers and apply it in the practical setting of a busy clinical life.”

- An Effective Voice -

“The CMA has done excellent work at all levels of British society, including in parliament, the media, the GMC, BMA and many other places.”

Consultant and former GP and Clinical Director

- Professional Support -

“It was as a medical student that I was first exposed to medical procedures that conflicted with my conscience.

I contacted the CMA regarding one particular dilemma and I received helpful guidance. Feeling very supported by the CMA, I felt able to write to one of my educators sharing some of my concerns.”

Specialist Registrar and CMA member

- Integrating Faith and Clinical Practice -

“I joined the Guild of Catholic Doctors (as the CMA was), at the start of my career as a GP. The Guild and its members helped me rapidly see the beauty and dignity of the practice of Medicine through the eyes of Faith. I cannot think how barren my professional life would have been without them.”
