Super-supervision: back to basics with Shaen Milward

This is a practical webinar for both supervisors and supervisees who want to get more from the supervision process, whether they are delivering it, receiving it, or shaping a stronger supervision culture. The session will revisit the core purpose of supervision, explore what makes supervision effective, and consider the attitudes and conversations that help it become a meaningful professional space rather than just a routine meeting. We will cover key functions of supervision, common pitfalls, the shared responsibility of both parties, and simple approaches that support reflective thinking, accountability, professional growth and psychological safety. Suitable for those new to supervision, as well as experienced practitioners wanting to refresh and strengthen their practice.

Swollen legs, stolen lives: how oedema steals mobility and independence

Swollen legs are often dismissed as a minor or inevitable problem. In reality, unmanaged oedema can be the first step toward loss of mobility, independence, and quality of life.

This webinar raises awareness of how lower limb swelling triggers a downward spiral of heaviness, pain, reduced movement, muscle weakness, and fear of activity- often leading to deconditioning and patients becoming 'off-legs.' Everyday coping strategies, such as reduced walking or sleeping in a chair, can unintentionally worsen the problem.

Aimed at all healthcare professionals, this session shifts the focus from treating symptoms to recognising early warning signs and acting sooner. It highlights how simple, timely interventions can protect mobility, prevent avoidable decline, and help people remain independent for longer.
