Trinity College Dublin Student led Clinic

To celebrate Health and Sport Week 2026, College Health and the Faculty of Health Science held a drop-in health check clinic in the Dining Hall, Trinity Front Square with free, health chats and checks available to all staff and students. Led by student doctors, nurses, physios, dieticians, and supervised by College Health GP and Chartered Physiotherapist with the Faculty of Health Science and Healthy Trinity staff. 

We’re trialling this free clinic, led by students, to understand can free student-led clinics be made available more often.  This is a Healthy Trinity partnership between Faculty of Health Science and College Health under the School of Medicine’s Interprofessional Training strategy.
