Webinar: Meet the President - a conversation with Tim Lane

Join us at 6pm on Wednesday 2 December for a webinar with Tim Lane, the first President of the Royal College of Surgeons of England to be elected directly by the membership.

This is an opportunity to hear Tim's perspectives on the future of the College, his priorities as President, and the issues that matter most to him. Don’t miss the chance to engage directly with the President and to also put your questions to him at the Q&A session. This interactive session is designed to give members a voice and provide an open forum for discussion.

The webinar will be chaired by Ginny Bowbrick, RCS England Council member, who will guide the conversation and facilitate the live Q&A.
