.@NHSBartsHealth has been at the forefront high quality intracranial stereotactic radiotherapy since the 1980s. We are ever grateful to the #LondonMasons for enabling us to hit the ground running with SABR in 2011 and the benefit it’s brought to our patients and our department.
Yesterday we got together with the @NHSBartsHealth #Radiotherapy team and the @LondonMasons at St Bartholomew's Hospital to send off the Cyberknife in style. The machine has prolonged the lives of close to 2000 cancer patients for the past 13 years and has transformed patient care, improving access to advanced radiotherapy and changed the landscape for cancer care. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the London Freemasons for their generous donation of  incredible fundraising of £3.1m that made all of this possible.

I’m privileged to work daily with these skilled professionals who combine physics, anatomy and a healthy dose of empathy to help diagnose & treat clinical conditions. Radiographers can never be replaced. They deserve better. Support them. @SCoRMembers @RCRadiologists
🏥Hospital appointment this week? This strike is a cry for help for radiography professionals, patients and the NHS. Learn more here: ow.ly/qiCU50PiVNH We would rather not strike and interrupt your care but the Government are not listening. You deserve better.

Our members deserve better. Our patients deserve better. We’re missing 10% of the workforce. A million people are on #NHS wait lists. Everyone urgently needs more than the Government’s future promises. Read more: ow.ly/pWyR50PkfFF #respectradiography #strike

Stickers at the ready. So great to see colleagues supporting our strike action. There’s a shortage of radiographers now. No point screening patients then not having the T rads to treat cancer patients. No other profession can do what we do #respectradiography

@BBCBreaking #BBCYourQuestions The @SCoRMembers strike starting at 8am is huge. Radiographers may only make up a small proportion of the workforce but they see over 90% of patients who use the NHS. Bad enough being ignored by the government not willing to engage. Why no coverage?
