PCRS in Conversation - Health Inequalities

At the Primary Care Respiratory Society (PCRS), we believe in 'optimal'; respiratory health for all. Our aim is that, together, we can benefit every person with, or at risk of, lung disease. To do this, though, we need your help and we are thrilled to introduce our monthly webinar series PCRS In Conversation.

Our first webinar in this series will be held on Wednesday 31st January 2024 at 19:30 for 30 minutes. Chaired by Dr Katherine Hickman (our PCRS Executive Chair), we will focus on the topic of Health Inequalities with guest speaker Ren Lawlor. The session will explore how you, as an individual clinician, can actively support and advocate for your patients in addressing health inequalities, even when the challenges may seem daunting and beyond your immediate influence.
