The West Midlands and East Midlands Radiotherapy Networks are excited to be launching a dedicated campaign to help recruit tomorrow’s oncologists, today. Our campaign is called “Look at life in clinical oncology“.
Our mission
We want to help Foundation Doctors imagine and understand the life of a Clinical Oncologist here in the Midlands.
As the new generation of Foundation Doctors enters the profession with ideals about their future life, we want to empower them to choose Clinical Oncology that best fits their own personal life choices – work to live, not live to work.
Are you a Foundation Doctor?
We have recently held some exciting virtual and in-person professional networking events across the Midlands, where our host of Clinical Oncologists Champions shared why this career choice could be right for you.
If you missed these, you can listen on demand to the recording of the virtual session – by clicking on the button below.
Virtual professional networking event 29 Sept 2026
COMING SOON! Clinical oncology ‘taster’ education session for Foundation Doctors
February 2027 – more details to follow
Do you work with Foundation Doctors?
Please help us with our Look at Life in clinical oncology project!
- Disseminate the posters advertising our forthcoming professional networking events to your Foundation doctors through your available channels
- Signpost your Foundation doctors to our social media platforms and our dedicated careers webpage
- Like/share/engage with our social media content, and amplify our reach by accessing our social media toolkit and posting your own content
- Facilitate links with Foundation Programme Co-ordinators and Training Programme Directors who may be able to support local distribution of information.
- Consider if there would be opportunities for us to present a short clinical oncology careers talk, or case-based session within existing Foundation teaching programmes
Initiatives such as this help address that gap and support the development of the future workforce. Your help in making this a success is much appreciated.
