“It is always possible to comment on political situations in distant places but to do so with conviction needs an opportunity to come face to face with the realities of everyday life, and to meet people on both sides of the conflict. This tour enabled me to do just that with regard to the health care situation in the Occupied Territories”
Prof John Yudkin, London - November 2008
“I felt it an immense privilege to go on this trip which is meticulously organized and for me was a once in a lifetime opportunity.”
Dr Alison Payne, Coventry - November 09
