Grab your trainers, your dog lead or a cuppa and join us for some free CPD as we have another relaxed round up of recent Red Whale primary care Pearls of wisdom. There was so much information in the Pearls that we released over the 5 weeks of May that we’ve realised that we can’t possibly squeeze it all into one handy sized episode, so in the first of two episodes this month, Nik and Caroline discuss:

• Lifestyle as medicine- an antidote to too much medicine?
• Dying matters: identifying adults approaching end of life.

We also announce the winner of a whole year of Red Whale Knowledge for free, in our Primary Care Superheroes competition…

Listen as soon as you can to ensure you have full access to all the free resources.

The rest of the Pearls from May will be covered next week along with a new best intentions story to put a smile on your face.
