Compression garments are so effective at providing comfort and relief that they can be used by patients suffering from a wide range of conditions. This means that, in order to ensure our knowledge is as far-reaching and as up-to-date as possible, we attend conferences, seminars and training courses on a number of different subjects.

The next of these crucial events that representatives from Jobskin plan to attend is UKSF, the UK Stroke Forum, which will take place over three days in November 2017 at Liverpool ACC. The UKSF comprises a coalition of more than 30 organisations from around the UK, each of which has made a commitment to improving care for stroke victims. It provides a platform for professionals and researchers to meet and learn from one another, as well as delivering a selection of workshops, presentations and showcases focusing on improving care for stroke survivors.

Among many other beneficial aspects, the UKSF provides;

• Opportunities for attendees to gain accredited professional training

• Information on the latest research, development, innovations and services in post-stroke care and management

• Potential networking opportunities for attendees from right across the spectrum of the care pathway

• A platform for professionals to showcase their work at a presentation and open topics up for debate

UKSF by Numbers

• UKSF takes place over 3days, which includes 1 dedicated training day in a relevant field
