Significant events
- “2024 brought several exciting 'firsts' - a new Mentoring Scheme, initially open to cardiology resident doctors within one year of CCT and consultant cardiologists within 5 years of first appointment; BCS Webinars, with the inaugural session attracting 512 registrations and 200 live attendees; and a new course - the Cardiac Nurse Specialist Symposium in collaboration with BANCC (British Association for Nursing in Cardiovascular Care).”
- “Our Women in Cardiology group hosted a successful new series of 'Cardiology Survival Skills' webinars and published a comprehensive guide on how to become a consultant cardiologist.”
- “As part of the implementation of the recommendations in our 2023 Consensus Statement on unprofessional behaviours, our conference included sessions on recognising and responding to sexual misconduct, and our first-ever Active Bystander Training sessions; and we signed the NHS Sexual Safety Charter.”
- “We produced our inaugural Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity Policy and action plan which has been embedded as a cross-cutting theme in the new BCS strategy.”
- “In 2024 we published two joint societies' consensus statements - the first on advancing access to cardiovascular diagnosis and treatment of women with cardiovascular disease, which received worldwide publicity, and the second on the need for curriculum reform, outlining four key areas for change.”
- “We responded to several consultations including the Darzi report, the RCP consultation on physician associates and the NHS Ten Year Health Plan, collating evidence and opinion from our committees and officers, and ensuring that our views are heard at the highest level of policy-making.”
