FARNHAM Humanists have teamed up with Guildford and Woking Humanists to present an evening with TV’s Dr Philip Hammond, on Tuesday, November 3.

Dr Hammond is an NHS doctor, campaigner, health writer, investigative journalist, broadcaster, speaker and comedian. He has been an NHS doctor for over 20 years and presented five series of Trust Me, I’m a Doctor on BBC2.

As a comedian, Phil was half of the award winning double-act Struck Off and Die. He has performed three solo UK tours and has appeared many times on Have I Got News for You and Countdown.

Phil is a patron of the British Humanist Association and in his talk, titled ‘How to get the Most From Your One Wild and Precious Life’, Dr Phil argues that most lives need living not medicalising.

And for 90 per cent of symptoms, you’re better off with a dog than a doctor.

CLANGERS is a good model for living well, with or without illness. Connect, Learn, be Active, Notice, Give back, Eat well, Relax and Sleep. And don’t forget your five portions of fun.

The talk will begin at 7.30pm at Trinity Centre, Trinity Churchyard, High Street, Guildford, Surrey, GU1 3RR. Tickets are £8 (£4 for students) and can be bought online at www.farnham.humanist.org.uk or ring Sue on 01252 726684.
