Resident doctor industrial action

British Medical Association picket line visual for Drs industrial action

Resident doctors in England will be taking industrial action from 7am on Tuesday 7 April to 7am on Monday 13 April.

We are working hard to make sure we continue the safe delivery of our clinical services on strike days and our teams will contact patients directly if we need to reschedule any appointments.

If you have an appointment and have not been contacted, please assume this is going ahead and attend your appointment as planned.

Please be reassured that a lot of planning and preparation has been put in place to ensure we can continue to deliver safe, effective and high-quality care.

For information on how to get the help you need, please refer to this health guide: A guide to healthcare - South East London ICS

Media enquiries

The communications team provides a point of contact for journalists to respond to all media enquiries.

We are happy to help journalists represent the trust accurately, so please do get in touch to ensure your facts and information are up-to-date before publishing your story.

Our media team is responsible for:

  • Responding to media queries
  • Arranging interviews with our nationally and internationally renowned experts who can talk about some of the trust’s specialist topics

For all media enquiries Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, please email oxl-tr.communications@nhs.net where a member of the team will review and action your request.

If you have an urgent enquiry outside of office hours or at the weekend, please contact our director on call via the Bracton Centre switchboard on 01322 294300.

Filming and photography requests

We receive documentary, location and broadcast filming requests on a regular basis – we consider all proposals on an individual basis and will try to accommodate proposals where possible, if appropriate.

No photography or filming is permitted without prior arrangement and agreement. Our patients always come first and we have a duty to protect their safety and confidentiality. Anyone found filming or taking photographs on the trust premises without the permission of the trust’s communications team will be asked to leave by the security department and may face prosecution. 

Unless agreed otherwise, film crews and photographers must be accompanied by a member of the Communications Team at all times.
