Cancer care is evolving, and bringing treatment closer to where patients live is a key part of that transformation.

Aligned with the ambitions of the National Cancer Plan, this upcoming study day explores how The Christie is pioneering new Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy (SACT) service models across Greater Manchester. These innovative approaches are designed around patient needs, strong community partnerships, and clinical excellence.

Through expert-led sessions, case studies and real-world examples, you’ll gain insight into how SACT delivery is evolving across:
• Christie outreach sites
• Community clinics
• Oral SACT pathways
• Christie at Home services

These models are helping to support neighbourhood care, improve patient experience, reduce hospital attendances and ensure treatment is delivered safely and effectively in alternative settings.

If you're interested in the future of cancer care delivery, service redesign, and community-based oncology pathways, this event offers valuable insights and practical learning.

We’re delighted to welcome Professor Richard Booton to our Lung Cancer Study Day on 24th March here at The Christie Institute for Cancer Education Manchester.

🗣️Professor Booton will present the latest findings from the NHS England Lung Screening Programme and its growing impact across Greater Manchester, including:

• Identification of 1 lung cancer case per 60 scans
• 80% of cancers detected at an early stage
• Radical treatment rates approaching 90%
• Evidence of a reduction in late-stage disease and a major improvement in 1-year survival

He will also explore the potential next steps to further strengthen the programme — such as adjusting the LDCT risk threshold and extending screening up to age 80 — while highlighting the wider benefits, including reducing health inequalities in deprived populations.

This is an important opportunity to understand how early detection strategies are transforming outcomes and shaping the future of lung cancer care.

Advance your practice. Elevate patient care.

"We understand how isolating it can feel to struggle with bereavement conversations. You're not alone, and these skills can be learned."

Grief affects everyone differently. Healthcare professionals regularly encounter bereaved or soon-to-be-bereaved families, and these high-stakes encounters take an emotional toll.

Communication training doesn't just benefit patients, it protects professionals too.

Research shows that bereavement communication training:

⭐Reduces burnout and compassion fatigue
⭐Teaches emotional regulation and reflective practice
⭐Empowers both those in bereavement and staff
⭐Builds team resilience

Join us on 27th March 2026 for our Loss, Grief & Bereavement Communication Course.
