The Parents in surgery project was a recommendation of the Kennedy review, published in March 2021. The Parents in surgery working group produced a report of the challenges faced by surgeons who are parents or intending to be parents in September 2022. The Nuffield Trust was also commissioned to work on producing recommendations that would be required to improve flexibility in training and ensure career progression for surgeons with caring responsibilities. They have highlighted a number of recommendations that the surgical community need to take forward.

Join us in this first series of webinars to understand the findings of the Parents in surgery report from Professor Fiona Myint, RCS vice president and chair of the Parents in surgery report. Ms Roshani Patel and Mr Chris Jones will be joining us to share their experiences and realities on the ground in training.

There will be an opportunity for audience participation in the Q&A session at the end of the talks.
