Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Colin worked tirelessly as an out of hours GP. He realised his career was negatively impacting on his mental health. He got out. Sadly the trauma of it all got the better of him. His experience was plagued in fear of retribution from complaints in the current blame culture that corrupts the NHS today.  

Doctors in Distress are aiming to break through these barriers and is something I absolutely believe must change to save more healthcare professional lives.
