foundation year medicine!!

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know any unis that take people on the foundation year medicine route without them having any particular circumstances/contextual requirements?
I am fortunate enough to not meet the typical eligibility criteria, however I am looking to get a letter from my GP discussing my mental health during sixth form.
I achieved AABB in my A-Levels this year so I’m just trying to explore my options as well as retaking my A-Levels. I am more leaning towards retaking because I know I can do a lot better and I have confidence in my second performance.
Any suggestions would be amazing thank you 😁

A lot of unis that do offer foundation years for medicine tend to offer it to people from less fortunate backgrounds as part of the widening access programme. See: https://www.themedicportal.com/application-guide/choosing-a-medical-school/foundation-courses/

You can look at resitting, but only a handful of unis accept resits for medicine and they tend to be particular about who to accept based on resits. See: https://www.themedicportal.com/application-guide/choosing-a-medical-school/medical-school-a-level-resit-policies
