It was lovely to have you there. It was a great day. We are already looking forward to hosting the next one 😂 @emmafc
It was wonderful to be invited to attend the Hepatocellular & Cholangiocarcinoma Nurse Specialist Study Day last week. It was really interesting to hear some very informative talks, and to speak to nurses at our stall about our work and the support we can offer their patients.
