SACT in Motion: Your Care, Your Community, Your Home

Course overview

The National Cancer Plan sets out an ambitious vision for transforming cancer care—bringing treatment closer to home, expanding community-led pathways, and ensuring that patients can access high-quality, personalised treatment wherever they live. This study day explores how The Christie is driving this transformation across Greater Manchester through pioneering SACT service models designed around patient needs, community partnerships and clinical excellence.

Through expert-led sessions, case studies, and real-world service examples, you will gain an in-depth understanding of how SACT delivery is evolving—across Christie outreach sites, community clinics, oral SACT pathways and Christie at Home. The programme highlights how these innovative models support neighbourhood care, improve patient experience, reduce hospital attendances, and ensure treatment is delivered safely and effectively in alternative settings.

This event is ideal for professionals interested in shaping the future of cancer care delivery, service redesign, and community-based oncology pathways.
