RadReach Engagement Day - Thriving not just Surviving
In 2021 RadReach in collaboration with the Widening Participation Medics Network (WPMN), was formed as an initiative encouraging under-represented groups to choose a career in clinical oncology or clinical radiology.
Since 2021 88 people have gone through our mentoring programme with many going on to secure places on specialty training.
Our third annual event in 2025 will be themed on thriving not just surviving and will include skills sessions and practical support, panel discussions and sessions on managing wellbeing. There will also be time for networking with peers and a Q&A with the RadReach team.
When: Friday 7 March 2025
Who should attend?
Current and previous RadReach mentees are encouraged to attend to build skills and to foster a sense of belonging among the existing RadReach community.
Final year medical students and foundation year doctors from a widening participation background who are interested in applying for the next cohort are also encouraged to apply.
