We recently held two fantastic Spotlight on Sarcoma Days in Stanmore and Leeds, bringing together healthcare professionals new to sarcoma or do not work in sarcoma specialist services to share knowledge, learn more about sarcoma and improve care.
📍Stanmore Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust : 69 healthcare professionals from 20 organisations came together to hear from sarcoma specialists and Charlotte, who was treated for sarcoma as a teenager. Her powerful story offered invaluable insights into the patient experience.
📍Leeds: 71 healthcare professionals from 20 hospitals joined us to hear from sarcoma specialists across Leeds, Newcastle and Sheffield, alongside Lindsey, who spoke openly about her experience of being diagnosed with osteosarcoma. The day was held in partnership with the North East & Yorkshire Rare Tumours Networks.
Thank you to everyone who attended and shared their expertise.
By increasing awareness and understanding of sarcoma among healthcare professionals, we hope to support earlier diagnosis, improve patient care and ultimately lead to better outcomes for people affected by sarcoma.
Thank you to Merck and Deciphera Pharmaceuticals for sponsoring these study days.
