On-going professional development is actively encouraged.

All staff have the opportunity to work flexible hours; full-time posts work 37.5 hours over four long days with a day off. All staff participate in bank holiday working, on-call for emergency patients at the weekend.

The department consists of 3 Varian Truebeam Linear Accelerators,  a Gulmay Unit and a Toshiba wide bore CT scanner with radiographer-led palliative virtual simulation using Eclipse. We have an active Clinical Trials department and participate in most major trials.

We are expanding our SABR service and have introduced tattooless radiotherapy using SGRT and plan to expand this service in the next few months.  Further technical developments are planned for introduction in the near future.
