About

How are life-or-death choices made in the heat of the moment? What are the consequences of your action, or inaction? Is it better at times to do nothing? How do you live with yourself if you want to help, but can’t?

These are the questions by Manchester medic and humanitarian Professor Tony Redmond in his memoir, Frontline: How to Save Lives in War, Disasters and Disease.

Join Tony and the charity he founded, UK-Med, for a special evening reflecting on a selection of personal stories as well as moving other stories from UK-Med’s humanitarian responses.
