I just did a workshop cupidcostproject training school. I asked members to turn cancer prevention/ screening messages into an easy-to-read format. We talked about whether these formats should be used standard in practice to support everyone’s understanding - I think so! #inclusion

The #BreakingBarriers conference & cupidcostproject training school School of Nursing & Midwifery, TCD Trinity Centre for Ageing & ID was truly inspiring — thank you to everyone who joined, gave presentations, had stands and helped out. Together, we are shaping a powerful narrative of inclusion, equity, and action on cancer
