Abstract:

A Scottish Sarcoma Network (Glasgow Centre) special study day on 6th March 2019 at the School of Simulation and Visualisation, Glasgow School of Art, with representatives from Sarcoma UK, Beatson Cancer Charity and the BBC. Traditional patient information leaflets inadequately convey medical information due to poor literacy levels: 16–27% of UK population have the lowest adult literacy level1 and 40% the lowest “Health literacy” level (ability to obtain, understand, act on, and communicate health information).
