STRIKE: Proud of our young doctors

I am concerned that the junior doctor's strike is going ahead and their concerns have not been addressed.

I travelled recently from Alnmouth to Edinburgh with a party of six junior doctors on a stag weekend.

I was horrified at the thought of a drunken trip, but they were very moderate, having one bottle of Buck’s Fizz between six.

I listened in to their conversation about the hours they worked – 13-hour days and one day off in three weeks as an example. They were not showing off, but just talking among themselves

I was very proud of these marvellous young men, so committed to their jobs. They need supporting.

Judi Hill,
