We need some @RegionalAnaesUK merch for these two to sell 🤣. #RAUK21 #pattermerchants . Well done everyone on getting through Day 1. A huge amount of work behind the scenes to try to fix technical issues 🙏😢. Amazing content, and all online soon for everyone to recap/watch 😊.

Big George has worked for @NHSGGC for 42 yrs, currently as an auxiliary in DSU recovery. He’s been a vociferous #RegionalAnaesthesia advocate all that time and hasn’t required RCTs to spot the benefits 😃! Those of us who do RA will miss him - those who don’t might not as much😉.
