Glasgow and Maidstone

We kicked off the first of our five Legs Matter Roadshow events in Glasgow followed by a fabulous session in Maidstone, Kent

We had full houses on both days and there was a mix of private and NHS Podiatrists in attendance as well as clinicians from Community nursing teams.

About the day

Members from the Legs Matter coalition, in partnership with Essity, presented a mix of theory and practical over the course of the day. The enthusiasm and engagement throughout every session was great to see, with many attendees stating they felt much more confident with both ABPI and compression therapy by the end of the course, whilst building their own professional networks in the process. Jo Casey, Joint Chair of Legs Matter said:

The Legs Matter Roadshow has a super supportive atmosphere and it is wonderful to see Podiatrists, Nurses and other Healthcare Professionals developing their skills and knowledge in the use of compression hosiery, to support early intervention in venous disease management.

What the participants said

Feedback from attendees was very positive with 100% stating they will implement the learnings from the course into their clinical practice and rated the quality of teaching as excellent.

A few standout comments which were received from participants:

“Excellent! Well-presented and practical learnings were brilliant. Great value too! Maybe too cheap!”

“Excellent day and enjoyed the hands on practical aspect”

“The cost of this course suits all people. The mix of therapy and practical for multi-modal learning is brilliant”

“Thank you to the team for organising a great event on  such a worthwhile topic”
