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 made via email to info@sor.org. Please ensure that you include your full postal address when making your request.

Update as of 12/03/2020: In case advice in respect of Covid-19 is to take precautions/work from home there will not be staff available in SCoR HQ to action careers pack requests.  Scanned PDF copies of the leaflets etc. noted below can be found in the document download box toward the bottom of this webpage and can be printed off locally without the need for permission from the SCoR.
