24 January 2026 – Origami Workshop

Please join us on Saturday 24th of January for a 2 hour workshop held at the PGMEC, City Hospital from 10:00 am to 12:00pm

At great expense, MedChi have persuaded origami black belt, Sensei David Bogod, to descend from his mountain-top temple in Gamston and deign to share some of his most closely-guarded paper-folding secrets with a select band of acolytes from MedChi.  Expect the usual mild chaos that has marked previous iterations of this event as, together, we fail to master the complexities of the outside reverse fold and – let it only be whispered – the closed sink.  Come and join the fold!

Fee of £15 per person (£20 for non-members), inclusive of materials.

Friday, 25 April 2025, University Archives Tour

Please join us for a MedChi visit to the University Archives.
We will enjoy an introductory talk on the archives and the MedChi historical collection of books
We plan to see some of the ancient books – some going back to the 16th century. We can handle them and they are truly amazing in the size (some are very big), the language used, illustrations and medical practice at the time etc.
We plan to see the Conservator in action – they will be checking for damage, infestations, recording digitally etc.
We plan to see all the University of Nottingham Archives/ Manuscripts and Special Collections which are stored in a vast room which is air temperature and humidity controlled.
Many of the books are in water resistant boxes and the very large shelves can be moved around on tracks on the ground with a balcony area too.
The whole trip is fascinating, informative and interesting.
