The British Medical Association (BMA) is fundamentally a trade union and professional body for doctors in the UK. The BMA was founded in 1832 by Sir Charles Hastings as he wanted a ‘friendly and scientific’ forum where doctors could advance and exchange medical knowledge. [1]

- All doctors have strong representation and expert guidance, whenever and wherever they need it
- All doctors have their individual needs responded to, through career-long support and professional development

- All doctors can connect with each other as a professional community
