Issue 3 red cell news cover shotThe Spring /Summer 2013 edition of red cell news, is out now!

This the best edition yet, packed full of patient-focussed features. It  contains our first interview with a patient at Guy’s & St. Thomas’ Hospital (GSTT) and a short story, also from a patient at GSTT. Our next edition, Autum/Winter 2013 will be out later in the year.  Do you have any groups, events, or stories you would like to promote – or just introduce yourself and the work you do? It would be great to hear from our Consultants/Nurses and other healthcare professionals and, of course, from our patients from around the Network.
