In the current climate poor clinical attendance is 'the norm'. Individuals don't want to attend clinic appts or receive home visits #covid19UK. These are unprecedented times where services are having to think 'outside the box' to provide ongoing care 🤔 @NHSGrampian @HSCAberdeen

Good news! If you want to study podiatry in England from September 2020, you can get a minimum of £5,000 in funding per year that you won’t have to pay back. Find out more: ow.ly/f6v050yqbMM cop.org.uk/news/college-of-p…

Where can clinicians make the biggest difference? Lower limb wounds are the most common type of chronic wounds, correct treatment will see the biggest reduction on the overall burden of wounds. @UAdderley #wearewounds #Harrogate2019 – at Harrogate, England

His understanding and passion of Charcot makes me personally understand the condition better which can then be passed onto the patients we see
