In this episode of AXREM Insights, Melanie Johnson and Sally Edgington speak with David Kynaston from BrainLab and Dan Baines from Elekta, two key figures in AXREM’s Radiotherapy Special Focus Group. They discuss their personal journeys into the radiotherapy space, their passion for improving cancer care, and how the group is helping shape a better future for radiotherapy services in the UK. Their shared experiences highlight the unique, collaborative nature of the radiotherapy community and the vital role AXREM plays in connecting industry with NHS needs.

The conversation explores the current challenges facing the sector, including outdated equipment, fragmented funding, and increasing demand. David and Dan reflect on the group’s manifesto — “Driving Towards a Modern, World-Class Radiotherapy Service” — and the importance of sustained, long-term investment to bring about real change. They also highlight the powerful partnerships between AXREM, Radiotherapy UK and parliamentary stakeholders, all working together to ensure radiotherapy receives the recognition and support it deserves.
