So not sure if it's ok to post this here. If not let me know, and where I should post it and I'll do so
I work in healthcare in a GP surgery. We get these books BNF (British National Formulary) each year. Basically, it tells doctors and nurses which medication can be prescribed for which medical conditions. For example: Hypertension and then pages of medication that can be prescribed for it.
We used to send books from previous years to countries which are not as developed. However, this hasn't happened for couple of years due to COVID and such. Last ones we sent to African countries when someone went to volunteer there for a few months.
We obviously have a lot of books from past couple of years, and some more that were left over from before. This information is still relevant and could be useful. Our doctors use last years' book if their room does not have a new book (we don't get enough to go to all).
The new books are due to come out soon and the doctors are piling up old books for me to get rid off. I hate binning them as there are many countries who need so many things, and also these cost about £60 a pop. My boss just gave me a go ahead to try and find charity who would take them instead.
So if anyone knows of an organisation that takes things like this, or works with organisation that could find these useful, can you let me know?
Thanks
