About Generation Medics
We are transforming healthcare by building an empowered and engaged community of talent
Generation Medics is a multi-award-winning social enterprise founded by NHS Doctors. We are the UK's largest social enterprise and online community run BY medics FOR medics ✨
At Generation Medics we believe that there are talented individuals in every community
But the circumstances people are born into still limit the opportunities they are able to access. We don’t think that’s right.
With access to unbiased and up-to-date information, advice, support and networks, individuals can achieve their potential. Generation Medics was founded to offer this

Our Story
Every day, our dedicated, diverse, full-time team of expert professionals and 4000+ volunteers devote their time, energy and expertise to a single purpose: to inspire and empower people to fulfil their potential, by making medical and healthcare careers accessible to everyone – whatever their background.
A purpose that’s at the heart of everything we do.
Many people – especially those from more disadvantaged backgrounds – don’t believe they have what it takes to succeed in a medical career, and so they’re letting opportunities pass them by.
When we came into the world back in 2013 (with over 4 years of experience prior to this), we took it upon ourselves to change that. And it’s the fuel that’s been driving us ever since.
Individuals with a common purpose to make a positive difference can make a HUGE IMPACT by coming together
Generation Medics is proof

Liv found the uni degree + career she wanted thanks to our Virtual Healthcare Careers Academy and support programme 🤩
My parents work hard but didn't go to university and didn't understand the options available during and after I leave school
I was fortunate to take part in a club run by Generation Medics at my school when I was in Year 9, attended their national conference when I was in Year 10 and had a mentor to help me plan out my future
With access to the wonderful supportive team at Generation Medics, their resources and online platform I have looked into lots of careers and now know what I'm going to do and how to get there. I also feel like I have joined a big family of people who want to help each other succeed - I love it!
