Excellent presentation by Hazel Clarke @SWRTLateEffects on identifying LE needs of H&N patients. Prospective follow up is what is needed to identify and effectively manage these effects 👏

A brilliant bit of work by @danielphutton to genuinely put the patient’s voice at the heart of service improvement and tackle the ‘Disney version’ of radiotherapy that people are given too often #ESTRO23 – at Vienna, Austria

We often forget the role of dissemination with the amazing work we do. Have a look at this conference to showcase the amazing work in education and the education pillar in advanced practice. We would love to see your poster contributions @AAPEUK @SCoRMembers @NHSE_WTE
