After a very difficult and challenging two years during which many of you have experienced personal loss and many professional challenges it's now time to come together as a professional group to explore how we can forge ahead and improve lung cancer services and survival as we all live alongside COVID-19. Moreover, we will also be taking time to reflect and explore how we can better support each other, our teams and create emotional resilience for ourselves.

Our annual conference, scheduled to take place on 12 and 13 May 2022 at the Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow, is the go-to event for any nurse working in lung cancer providing highly relevant information and training for your professional portfolio as well as offering a chance to relax and share with your friends, colleagues and peers. We have fantastic and inspiring speakers lined up for this must-attend event.

The conference is renowned for being embedded in day-to-day nursing practice and for welcoming delegates with its reinvigorating and friendly atmosphere. It offers busy nurses the chance to recharge their batteries, network and interact with like-minded colleagues and learn from experts about the latest developments and treatments specific to the profession.

Bringing the Health Companion to Patients

In collaboration with DaSH Global, we have developed a new digital ‘Health Companion’ which enables patients to submit data regarding their quality of life and experiences in the management of lung cancer as well as any costs associated with the condition. The programme has previously been piloted as part of a study for Mesothelioma UK and adapted for lung cancer. We urge you to get involved and support this initiative.
