I am on the frontline course in Northampton just about to go to workshop 2. Like you I was nervous and apprehensive about what to expect.
Im the only dental nurse on the course and from a general practice whilst everyone else is employed by the NHS and working in hospitals.
I love the course, so useful and interesting, the workshops where really good, not boring and full of information.
Hopefully I will be able to influence my practice in some shape or form

I just wanted to say thank you for the information.
I've just been accepted onto the Manchester cohort starting October.
Not sure exacltly what to expect but although a bit nervous, I'm really excited and looking forward to a new challenge.
Would love to know there are more dental nurses taking up this opportunuty.
