SGPET Events Update. Taking account of all possible advice the SGPET team has unfortunately had to make the decision that we cannot put on any same room face to face meetings before March 2021. We will instead be putting on a lot of what we are having to cancel as live Zoom events. This will include Fresh Looks, the study days and key courses. If you are already booked on an event that was due to be face to face, please be assured we will be contacting you to let you know if this will be happening via Zoom.
We are also looking at how some of our more local meetings can be rearranged to make the most of the increased access that going online can give. We hope that you will understand this situation. As ever we want to address any concerns you have and incorporate your suggestions for these online meetings - queries and ideas to : lmc.sgpet@nhs.net
(Note: An exception to this situation is the Practice Nurse Ear Care Sessions, these will be run face face with current safety measures in place as cannot be held remotely)
