Bridging Communities, Shaping Futures: The British Tamil Medical Association
Welcome to the British Tamil Medical Association (BTMA)
Established in February 2021, BTMA is the first association dedicated to connecting the British Tamil community. Our mission is to unite British Tamil medical students, aspiring medical students, and doctors from across the UK, all of whom volunteer their time to support and give back to the community.
A Growing Community
Over the past 3 years, we have gained 3,000 followers on social media and collaborated with numerous British Tamil doctors across various disciplines. Our reach and influence continue to grow, thanks to the commitment of our sixth form representatives, medical student university representatives, resident doctor wing, and consultant faculty, all driven by a shared passion for supporting and uplifting the British Tamil community.
Expanding Our Network
Through competitive applications and interviews, we are proud to announce the expansion of our team from 7 to 42 members. This sixfold increase has allowed us to introduce British Tamil student representatives at medical schools across the country, including prestigious institutions like Oxford, UCL, Leeds, Birmingham, Imperial, King's College, and Bart's.
A Bright Future Ahead
As of September 2024, the British Tamil Medical Association (BTMA) is proud to announce our recognition as a Community Interest Company (CIC)! This official status as a non-profit organization bolsters our commitment to making a positive and lasting impact on our community and beyond.
Thank you for being part of our journey.
