Who moderated and spoke at GPDU18
@cjpoynter @nomadicgp A fantastic performance at #coda22. What a poignant song.
Musical HCPs live performing during conferences not new though. 2018's #gpdu18 conference featured artists from classical strings through to a pop music band.
Always great to showcase talents such as these.

You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good #GPDU18 #justaGP https://t.co/USXGQliBEH

Conference organisers she's a pretty amazing speaker by the way 😉
