IT incident update – 28 March 2024

Following the IT outage we suffered yesterday (Wednesday 27 March), the majority of our systems have now been restored overnight.

The Christie Hotline (0161 446 3658) and switchboard (0161 446 3000) are working so patients can contact us as normal in this way.

We will continue to post information on the Trust website and social media channels with any further updates as necessary.

If you are attending for an appointment today, please bring with you information about your treatment, past medical history and medications which will help our staff should any systems still be slow. We apologise for any delays that this incident may cause to your care and treatment.

Lymphoma research Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement group

Could you help shape the future of research into lymphoma? If you’re a lymphoma patient or you care for someone who is, your experiences could help improve patient outcomes.

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and The University of Manchester are creating a new lymphoma Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) Group. The group will be a unique space for lymphoma patients and their carers to work together to co-produce research.

By involving patients in our research, we can be sure we’re providing a service that meets the needs of our patients. And by listening to what people who come to The Christie think about what we do, we understand what is important to our patients.

The University of Manchester

You will help to prioritise research, offer advice as a member of a project steering group, comment on and/or develop research materials and participate in interviews with research participants.

  • You will work alongside a dedicated group of clinicians, academic researches and health professionals such as specialist and research nurses.
  • The group has an interest in research into screening, monitoring and diagnosing the late effects of treatment for lymphoma, including cardiovascular (heart and circulatory) disease and second cancers.
  • Your commitments can be tailored to suit your interests, experiences, skills and availability.

If you are interested in joining the lymphoma research PPIE group, please contact Dr. Tania Seale tania.seale@manchester.ac.uk for an informal chat or receive a copy of the role description.
