UKASCC Supportive Oncology Conference 2024

Join us for this unique event

We have brought together speakers from all over the globe to share their knowledge and expertise, and we welcome delegates from all medical and allied health specialties to learn more about this fast growing field of oncology.

The aim of this 3-day event is to provide a range of up to date, evidence-based guidance on how to anticipate and manage problems associated with cancer and its treatment.

Wednesday 9 to Friday 11 October 2024, 9am to 5pm BST

Location : The Bridgewater Hall, Lower Mosley Street, Manchester, M2 3WS

This event is hybrid and will take place on-site at Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, UK.

Delegates can attend face-to-face or virtually via our online event platform. Regardless of how you wish to register, you will be provided with on-demand access which will allow you to revisit any talks at a time that suits you.
