Hakim Group hosted its inaugural Spa (share, progress, achieve) event at the Bolton Whites Hotel on September 10 for a day of continuing professional development (CPD) sessions.
Claire Slade, head of professional advancement and governance at Hakim Group, said: ‘Spa CPD is a testament to our commitment towards the continuous advancement of optometry professionals and the optical industry as a whole. We wanted to create an environment that encourages learning, sharing, and interaction amongst our peers.
‘Our selection of speakers reflected this goal, offering a perfect blend of practical and visionary perspectives that will both educate and entertain. We designed this forum to foster an atmosphere of learning and reciprocity.’
The day featured speakers from the Hakim Group, such as Dr Keyur Patel and Professor Simon Barnard, as well as external presenters, including ophthalmologist Pearse Keane.
