During the summer of third-year, Trinity College Dublin medical students have to undertake an elective in a hospital to improve their skills and learn. Many students elect to go to hospitals in developing countries such as Zimbabwe or Tanzania.

Here they discovered that the majority of the hospitals in these developing countries were in need of basic medical equipment, supplies and medication. Some hospitals even required patients to bring they're own needles and bandages. The students were blown away by the staff at these hospitals and the lengths they went to provide their patients with the best care they could despite everything against them. The TCD students wanted to do something for these hospitals in thanks for allowing them to study with them over the summer.

Thus in 2010, a group of third-year Trinity medical students set up the charity Medical Overseas Voluntary Elective (M.O.V.E) to raise funds to buy basic supplies, equipment and medications for the hospitals that so graciously allowed them to undertake their summer elective with them.
