After finishing my full day list in Cleft Hospital, Gujrat, I went to Lahore to join the team of British Breast Surgeons who came to run the Basic Skills Course in Oncoplastic Surgery in Lahore and Islamabad.

I was there to thank them for their time and visit to Pakistan. They have safely returned with the promise to come back for further courses.

OPSA would like to thank Ariel Bruce for her contribution to Spring Surgical Camp.

Ariel has sourced a film crew from Goldsmiths, University of London (internationally known for creativity and innovation) to visit Pakistan and record the work of OPSA and PCLAPA (Pakistan Cleft Lip & Palate Association) in a television documentary, which we are very excited about.

The two film-makers have offered to do this for OPSA in their own time, and on a voluntary basis, for which we are extremely grateful.
