Here at team COCH ED, we are firm believers that sport and exercise are excellent for our mental and physical health.

Working in Emergency Medicine is an incredibly rewarding career, but brings with it psychological and physical challenges.

Individual exercise can be a great way to unwind (see our Strava group – to get motivation from, and help motivate, the rest of the team).

Competitive group activities can also help foster team spirit and give a shared experience outside of the Emergency Department – to that end we have the Challenge Shield!

Each year (possibly moving to each 4/12 rotation – watch this space) we hold a competition for the prestigious opportunity to have your name (or team’s name) entered for posterity onto the famous Challenge Shield.
