GRID Paediatric Palliative care
Are you interested in GRID training for Paediatric Palliative Care?
If so then there are 2 GRID posts soon to be advertised in paediatric palliative care. They are based at Martin House / Leeds (2 years working full time but can work LTFT). They are starting autumn 2023 and autumn 2024. Part of the training is in adult palliative care and can be undertaken in the North East rather than Yorkshire.
Applications are via the central college GRID process.
If anyone is interested please contact Dr Helen Aspey h.aspey@nhs.net (CHIPS) or Dr Michelle Hills Michelle.hills@nhs.net from Martin House to have a chat and discuss what the training opportunities may be.

Next Step Cafe
We are calling for unpublished research/audits/QI project reports/case reports from any Child Health professional in the North East (not limited to trainee Paediatricians) for our next Next Step Cafe mentorship session in the coming weeks.
Next Step Cafe is a regional research mentorship platform aimed at helping colleagues' research related projects get published.
Please see flyer for details.

Research in the NHS Course
We have two further sessions this year of our 2-day Introduction to Research in the NHS course. This course is designed to help those with little previous research experience who would like to know more about getting involved in research and to understand some of the basic principles of research design. It is a potential gateway to getting more involved in future research.
I thought I should highlight that although the content will be the same the delivery will be different. The first course in September will be a face-to-face one at Newcastle Eagles and the second course in November will be an online interactive course. The reason for this is that previous course participants have requested that we offer a choice of delivery as some people prefer face-to-face but others find attendance challenging.
