Peer Support
Professional isolation can affect many of us
even when working in large practices. The College, in its role as a
membership organisation, is committed to helping bring GPs together
to share ideas and to support one another.
The College has local offices (faculties) across the UK and the
Republic of Ireland and devolved council
offices in
Scotland,
Wales, and
Northern Ireland. Each of these centres provides
a focus that actively encourages members to network. Activities are
organised by members and supported by staff, and include such
things as social occasions, lectures, and educational events, as
well as keeping members informed via regular newsletters. Details
of the faculties in the four English regions can be accessed
here.
In addition, our
Overseas Faculty provides support, information,
and networking activities for members who are working in countries
across the world.
