STUDENTS TEACH LOCAL KIDS ABOUT HEALTH AND SAFETY

These students from Exeter university  all stored with stuff2move and run a charity for 5 year olds teaching road safety Exeterstudentstorage.co.uk  were more than happy to supply some free storage   boxes & tapes to make cardboard cars which are now going to be painted  for the teddy bear hospital. Stuff2move think this is a worth while initiative. Keep up the good work guys.

Teddy Bear Hospital (TBH) is a Public Health project for 3-7 year old children – the aim is to reduce children’s fear of doctors and hospitals. It is also a good opportunity for medical students to work with children.

Children can sometimes be frightened or intimidated visit a doctor which can cause major barriers to examining a child or taking a complete history. With Teddy Bear Hospital, children will become more familiar with what doctors look like and what staff in a hospital might wear.

Teddy Bear Hospital is associated with Medsin, the Medical Students’ International Network.
