I trained as a Therapeutic Radiographer at Kingston & St. George’s University of London in 2011 and commenced working at The Royal Preston Hospital in 2014. I worked in pre-treatment and treatment radiotherapy prior to commencing a role as a Proton Senior Radiographer in 2018 at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester, before the proton service became clinical. I gained invaluable experience working in a new proton service, such as developing quality documents, ProBeam applications training and end to end testing. Myself and my colleague treated the first NHS proton patient in the UK in December 2018 and managed public proton enquiries with the governance team. My proton experience also includes proton pre-treatment expertise in mould room, CT and MR-Sim. I have a strong passion for learning and research. In 2021, I completed my MSc in radiotherapy and oncology and commenced a year secondment in radiotherapy research, which involved managing radiotherapy patients’ pathways through clinical trials and working clinically on the MR-Linac. I am often involved in teaching through The Christie Summer School and The Christie Proton School. I look forward to meeting you at the FRPT 2022 conference.
