HRH The Duke of Kent opens new UoB Academic Centre at MK University Hospital

On Tuesday 20 February, I was invited to take part in the opening of the new University of Buckingham (UoB) Academic Centre at MK University Hospital. As many of you know, the UoB started the first private medical school about 4 years ago after many years gestation. This building will now provide fantastic facilities for the student doctors based up in Milton Keynes.

HRH The Duke of Kent was kind enough to do the official opening and here he is with the Vice Chancellor, Sir Anthony Seldon as he gives the welcoming address. It is a fabulous building and I wish all the students great success as they move towards graduation sometime soon! (Local news coverage here)
