Catherine Bouvier will be in Toronto at the CNETs conference representing the UK’s national charity for patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). Catherine has 7 years experience as a Senior Nurse Specialist in NETs, at the Royal Free Hospital in London UK, and in 2006 co-founded the NET Patient Foundation. Since September 2007 Catherine took over the running of the charity on a full time basis, providing medical support, a help line, an updated website, and producing relevant patient information and educational tools. The main aims of the charity are:

  1. To support patients and their families through a support line. This is manned by an experienced health care professional.
    To raise awareness of neuroendocrine tumours through campaigns, attendance at relevant national/international NET conferences, road shows around the country, fundraising events, networking and collaboration with other charitable organisations.

  2. To improve the quality of life for patients and families through the moderated forum, help line, newsletter, support group meetings and information.

  3. To support research initiatives at the NET centres around the UK as the charity grows.

  4. To provide accurate and up-to-date information in the form of booklets, a quarterly newsletter, the website and patient support group meetings.
