The latest MDS UK Patient and Family Forum took place in Birmingham on the 4th of February.

It was an invaluable opportunity for those affected by MDS to hear about the latest developments in MDS research and treatment.

Those attending the forum took part in a variety of workshops and sessions delivered by experts and were invited to ask questions on the most pressing issues, from how to manage fatigue to newly available treatments.

The list of speakers included Peter James, Clinical Nurse Specialist at Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust, Susan Smith, Research Nurse at the Kings Mill Hospital, Sutton in Ashfield and Dr Justin Loke, Haematologist, QE at Birmingham, among others.
