Our Story
The Greener Healthcare and Sustainability Project (GHASP) was started in 2018 by two Anaesthetic Trainees as the Greener Anaesthesia and Sustainability Project (GASP). Over the years the organisation has supported its members in various sustainability focussed quality improvement projects, provided talks both within healthcare settings and outside of them and run a members conference in 2021. We have now widened our scope of practice beyond Anaesthetics and welcome members from all aspects of healthcare. We have members all across the UK and beyond, sharing their expertise and collaborating to build a healthcare system that is fit for the future.
