Radiographers promoting radiography

Radiographers are encouraged to take any opportunity to promote the profession to local schools and sixth form colleges. There are also opportunities to become involved in public speaking on radiography to various groups.

The Society and College of Radiographers has a limited supply of leaflets, posters and promotional material. Requests must be received at least a fortnight in advance and can be done via email info@sor.org. Please ensure that you include your full postal address when making your request.
